Thank you for your reply Snou,

Your IMEI was removed as this is a public platform and you cannot share your personal details.

Was the phone purchased from Virgin?

Hi Snou, 

Thank you for your reply, was the phone purchased from us directly? As our handsets purchased directly are unlocked. Does the handset work with a Virgin SIM?

Virgin network in Sweden is totally different from Virgin UK. There are a number of Virgin Mobile Networks around the globe and the only thing they have in common is the name 

This begs the question as to if this is a Virgin UK phone?. As mentioned, Virgin UK have not sim locked handsets for quite some time.
