Do 3 network lock their Note II phones - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I guess the title says it all.
I have a chance of a Galaxy Note II on the 3 network for £375 but am on Giff Gaff (O2 network) and am curious as to whether the phone will be unlocked or whether it is possible to unlock before buying?? I am UK based and so is the phone.
Any help is appreciated

Yep 3 lock their phones.
Was there not a thread this last week explaining on how to unlock for free?
Sent from my Samsung Note II.

go to the thread about free unlock as I just unlocked mine and I was on EE.

Unlock Irish Galaxy Note II

Hi guys,
I am due to get the Note II tomorrow on the Irish carrier Vodafone. I'm travelling to the USA next week for a month and so I will need it unlocked. Is there an app or similar way to carrier unlock it like there is with the Samsung Galaxy S III? I will go down the route of paying for the unlock code if necessary but I would rather not as the Note II itself is costing me €450!!
Cheers,
M
I'm on vodafone in the UK. It came factory unlocked.
Sent from my Galaxy Note 2 through the Space Time Continuum
mine came unlocked from carphone warehouse. Let us know if it comes unlocked or locked.
I will indeed guys I truly am hoping against hope mine will be unlocked as well as that would be so handy! Have any of you flashed a stock UK ROM after rooting as I hate all the useless bloat Vodafone put on their devices!!
Cheers,
M
Edit: It arrived early guys and it's locked So what are my options?? Really am disappointed!!
Update: Called Vodafone and they gave me the unlock code Have you guys noticed on auto brightness the setting seems just a little bit too dim??
