Good day,

There are a lot of requests regarding PUK codes.

When you enter your SIM PIN number wrong to many times you will need your PUK code. This is useful when your phone is stolen, because you can not loose any money due to call charges.

There are two ways to get your PUK number.
The first way you can get your PUK is to consult your documentation that came with your SIM Card. Somewhere your PUK will be given within the documentation.

The other way to get your PUK if you don't have your documentation or lost it, is to phone your mobile service provider. They will ask you a few details and then be able to give you the PUK code for the SIM card.

Feel free to let me know if this was useful!

Kind regards

It is asking for a PUK code after i put in the phone unlock code. Wat is the PUK code

PUK stands for Pin Unblocking Key,this PUK code is used if wrong PIN (Personal Identification Number)code is entered for several try's.It means if you enter PIN for more than 3x,the simcard will be blocked and ask you to enter the PUK code as what is explain above.

Usually this PUK code is on the package together with your simpack when you bought it. in your phone case,you need to enter the PUK code to unblock the PIN so you can access the simcard data's and features,otherwise,if you lost your PUK code, just contact your service provider and ask for your PUK code.



hope it helps...

My airtel sim was blocked today and ask puk code but i havn't puk code, so what i do ask me

When you enter a wrong pin number three times the phone asks you for a PUK number.

If you enter a wrong PUK number 10 times than you simcard gets rejected. Then you will have to buy a new simcard.

My phone has a locked sim it says enter puk code

Hi

PUK code is called as PERSONNAL UNBLOCKING KEY.

Your phone will ask for PUK code when you entered the PIN code wrongly several times depending upon the mobile make. The mobile asks for PUK code so that unauthorized persons do not use your mobile for wrong cause.

To get PUK code please contact your service provider through phone or go directly to their office. They will provide you the PUK code for your mobile. The PUK code is unique for each mobile phone model.so that you can open your phone. When you planning to call your service provider you cannot use your mobile as it is fully locked. Please use some other mobile with same network to call your service provider.

This PUK code prevents thieves from being able to make use of stolen handsets, that is why it can only be given by the service provider only.


While you get the PUK code ,the service provider customer care officer will ask for your personal details to check whether the mobile belongs to you only. If they are satisfied with your answers they will provide with the PUK code

DONOT enter the PUK code several times wrongly,It will block your sim card permanently.

This PUK code is FREE. You no need to pay any money to get the PUK code

Thank You.

    I've tired to set the PIN code for my Nokia 6085 phone but I cannot. I've entered the PUK code but now it says, "Enter new PIN code:" What do I do? I've entered a code I wanted and other ones on my...

    HOLD ON!
    You may enter wrong PIN three (3) times only. After that your PIN will be blocked! To unblock, you need PUK. You can only enter wrong PUK ten (10) times. (This is as documented) After entering correct PUK, you will be asked for NEW PIN.

    So, when it says "PIN blocked. Enter PUK code", you must enter the PUK. If you correctly enter the PUK, it will asked for new PIN, by asking "Enter new PIN code:". Enter anything you want as your PIN. You will be asked to enter it twice (two times).
    From what I read from your post, you have done correctly, but you don't want to enter new PIN. There is no way SIM card/phone will use old PIN. The device doesn't know your PIN. So, you have to enter new PIN.
