We have teamed up with the folks behind FastGSM, the phone unlocking company, to give away a free sim unlock to 25 lucky readers. Many people can get stuck when figuring out how to unlock their Xperia handset, but FastGSM has some easy-to-use unlocking software that will be accessible to all users.
FastGSM supports users being able to unlock older handsets such as the Xperia X10 or the Xperia X8 as well as newer handsets (the full list can be seen below). To enter the competition please follow the instructions below. We will pick 25 winners randomly when the competition closes at midnight (GMT) on Monday 26 December 2011. Good luck!
