About your PUK Code
How to find your PUK code
When you enter the wrong PIN for your mobile more than three times, your SIM card will be locked. This prevents anyone trying to guess your PIN. To unlock it, you'll need a Personal Unlocking Key (PUK) code.
You can find your PUK code on the package your SIM card came in or in My Vodafone.
If you no longer have your SIM packaging, follow the steps in Get your PUK code.

Simply enter: * * 05 * PUK code * new PIN * new PIN #
Please note: If an incorrect code is entered too many times, the SIM card will be permanently blocked (between 7-10 attempts depending on handset).
