will unlocked phones from the philippines work in uk

Same question, the other way round. I can't seem to get my Sun sim card to work here even on unlocked phones. Even the guy in the shop tried on his with no luck. Is it just Sun that is crap? Worked fine over there with an old phone I borrowed

Have you tried searching & choosing a network manually? It might be that Sun Cellular's partner network here in the UK isn't available in your area. I use a Globe sim for roaming and I only get a Vodafone network where we live (which is the partner network of Globe Telecom) but in other places, I can get O2 network too.

tried that, and all failed. I'll try the webchat to an adviser over the weekend sometime and see if they can help
