Unlocked PAYG handsets - what stores?

Does anyone know or have a list of stores that sell their handsets unlocked? Are Phones4U PAYG handsets unlocked?

Thanks

Don't think so! CPW don't have locked phones either.

They just sell the phone rather than a specific networks version

I bought a phone from Phones4U a while back and asked if it was unlocked before i bought it and I'm sure the guy said most of the phones are.

Turns out all Phones4U, PAYG phones are unlocked which is good.

CPW, bought a PAYG phone less than 6 months ago, it's unlocked.

CPW/P4U buy phone stock on the OEM market/SIM Free and flog it just like networks do. The only exceptions are network controlled deals (Orange San Fran for example) - but the branding will be obvious.

The easiest way to tell is usually the box.
