From the last year deal, https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/116979?page=1#comment
It costs $25 to unlock
Keep in mind afaik there's no 520 version that supports both 850 and 900Mhz for HSPA, so these won't work too well on Optus.
Why do people bother making these same comments over and over, you know you'll get negged for pushing wrong information around. Anyone who thinks WP8 "don't have any apps" is living in 2011. Get up to speed before you open your mouth and make stupid comments.
And no gumtree app? Oh no! Run for the hills the phone must be sh!t. I REFUSE TO LIVE WITHOUT MY GUMTREE APP!!!!! Ever heard of m.gumtree.com.au?
exactly, its not the end of the world if Gumtree won't make an app for the device, contact Gumtree and ask them when one will be made and ask others to do the same so they can people want one. Don't just moan about the lack of apps.
Just picked one up - is not recognising my Telstra (non-pre-paid corporate) SIM - bought it as a second phone when OS so I can be reached on my AUS number, and put my OS SIM in my Lumia 920. May have not inserted it quite right before putting the battery in, so will wait until it has finished updating over WiFi and try again. Good price though. I'm happy to pay $99 for a second windows phone for travelling, but will put down full asking price for a dual SIM high end nokia windows phone phone when one drops - best of both worlds (and my 920 is almost due for an upgrade).
Agree about the dual SIM high end Nokia. If/when they release that it will be a game changer.

Does it mean its locked and unusable on other networks, such as Optus?
