How old is your old phone @StephenR?

FYI, from Dec 2021 onwards mobile networks were not allowed to sell locked phones.

If your old phone is older, then you’ll need to contact the mobile network that sold you the locked phone.

If you got your old phone from iD Mobile, I think they stopped selling locked handsets in 2017.

Anyway, good luck.

The “Unlocking your phone” community FAQ article has more help and information for doing this.
