Many networks sell phones at a discount, especially on postpaid accounts, on the basis that they'll get their money back from use, and these are locked to be used only on their network. Any other SIM insertion may give a message to enter unlock or subsidy code.

Nokias are easiest to unlock, except the latest ones, and there are websites to calculate the code for free. Others makes can be done via cable at some dealers. For other phones, you probably have to discuss it with the network - some will ask for the remaining contract line rental, as though you would never come back, rather than just a 2 week holiday.

Recently, at first I thought this was just a metaphor or maybe a joke, but it is said that 3 UK have actually glued the SIMs into some prepaid phones.


But fortunately, unobtrusive has said
"Edit: The phone comes unlocked, as do all phones in Greece."
