Wireless carrier support and features for iPhone in Europe - Apple Support


You might find the above list useful.



"TFW" normally means Tracfone Wireless which is not a UK carrier but a US one, so I am confused as to how you used the phone in the UK unless you were purchasing a US International plan from TracFone. My understanding is TracFone does not sell phones that can be unlocked. You can bring your own phone but it won't be locked if you wish to use it with a different provider.
