Answer

Your phone is blocked to the network. You need to unblock it for you to be able to use it with other networks. brYou can get your phone unlocked from unblocking sites online not recommended since you dont sound like a mobile phone whiz or you can just take it to a shop where they do mobile phone unlocking. It will cost you around . brbrYou havent mentioned what model your phone is. brIf it is a Nokia N series phone, a Nokia or , you will not be able to get it unlocked from those shops or online. You will have to ring the network and get the unlock code from them. Just tell them that you want to unblock this mobile phone from their network and theyll give you further instructions. This will also cost around .
