SOURCE: Puk number for at&t

The PUK code is (in my case) a an 8 digit number that I must enter to make the phone operable after someone (me) trys to enter my password and fails too many times.
I ran into this a while back before Singular became AT&T. I was locked out and I called Cingular and told the tech my phone was asking for a PUK code. I had to prove to him who I was somehow, I don't remember now how I did that. Maybe with my latest bill or something. Anyway he finally told me the numbers to enter. I wrote the numbers down first and then entered them. I've had to use them a couple of times since to get back in after I've locked myself out. It stays constant once you get the code. I have checked my phone under the battery and under the memory chip and these numbers are nowhere to be found on the phone. I SUGGEST YOU PUT A RECORDER ON YOUR PHONE OR HAVE SOMEONE LISTEN IN AND WRITE DOWN THE CODE WHEN YOU CALL AT&T. IT MAKE ME MAD THAT I OWNED A PHONE BUT AT&T KNEW A SECRET CODE TO MAKE IT OPERABLE. This is however a good feature though. I have my phone password protected so if I lose it and someone finds it they can only use it until they turn off the power one time and then they will get locked out and it will ask for the PUK code. Good luck, call AT&T and remember being nice will get you somewhere more then likely.

Go to att.com log in to your account and under phone devices there is a link to obtain a puk code but it has to be entered using Att phone. That was how I unlocked my sim card.

That is the only way to unlock the PUK,Just Call and tell them you need the PUK code and read the number off the sim card to the customer care person when they ask for it.

What is the Nokia PUK code. My phone will not let me use my standard code because I made a mistake in entering it and is asking for a PUK code. What is that?

Ask your cell phone operator about that code. You have only 10 chances to enter it correctly so be careful. It's a 8 digit code to unlock your SIM card.

If you don't get the code, your SIM card will need to be replaced.

You can try too look for the code in the bigger card that your SIM came with.
It looks like this. In the bigger card is the PUK code.

I am a user of Reliance CDMA , the SIM has been locked and its asking for the PUK Code.. What is the PUK Code?

A PUK code is a "Pin unlock code" it is used in mobile phones. This code unlocks the SIM card to allow access to your mobile phone. If you enter this code incorrectly several times, then the SIM card will be locked permanently and you will need to purchase another SIM card from your mobile phone provider.
The PUK code is with the documentation that came with your SIM card, if you no longer have the documentation, then you need to contact your phone service provider and ask them for the PUK code.

There is only one way to access your phone without losing your data in your phone: 
  
   Block your sim by entering wrong lock code and then it will ask for the PUK code that you will get from your service provider. Enter that PUK code and your phone is unlocked.
