Hi @seekwn
1, Typically phones supplied by a Network are locked to them and require some form of criteria to be met before they'll unlock. Some Networks also charge. You'd need to contsct your Networks Customer service for clarification.
2, Vodafone Uk has two Payg Options called Big Value and Bundle. The information for these can be found in > Vodafone Pay As You Go options.
Pay As You Go Extras / Bolt On's can be found in > Vodafone Uk Payg benefits/extras.
When you've been in the Uk for a while and set up Uk Bank Accounts, registered etc then you maybe in time be able to apply for a full Pay Monthly Contract or Sim Only Contract which may offer better services for you.
3, I would really suggest going to the most local Vodafone Shop as they'll be able to properly go through options such as Tariffs and benefits and usually have you all topped up and set up before leaving the shop.
We do have discount Highstreet shops that sell SIM cards but they won't be able to properly advise on what's best but just take your £1 and off you go to activate it !
Tip > As well as ensuring your phone is Unlocked to All Networks I would also advise to check the Frequencies and Bands of your phone to check if the Vodafone Uk Network maybe able to support it.
I say maybe because even if the phone looks to be able to work Vodafone Uk wouldn't be able to provide support for what's essentially an imported phone not primarily released to work on the Uk Network.
