Mobile Phone help

[Miket]

Have got an unlock code for my wifes phone so she can use it with a Greek Sim Card.

Trouble is the instructions say:-

Remove sim card
Switch the phone on
Phone will display message, Insert Sim card
Enter following code, hash pw+13672******+2 hash

The problem is how do I press the p & w on the keypad, as it just comes up as the number 7 on the p.

There are further instructions which I don't need to bore you with.

I have sent the company numerous e-mails, but no response back

Maybe PW stands for 'press with'

worth a try!

Is the phone already sim free? i.e. not tied to a U.K. network
If it is then it needs to unlocked by connecting it to a pc with the relavant software, any good mobile phone dealer can do this.
Then normally it's just a matter of putting the greek sim in then. I've got Dutch and Russian sim cards,don't have to pay the extortionate British network costs then.

No, its locked to a UK network, I have purchased the unlock code via the web, as the phone dealers wanted £20, but as mentioned I cant enter the code letters pw.
