Hi @akak6578 there is no unlock codes for iPhones, Apple do the unlocking remotely.
Have a look here for what you need to do.

Hi @akak6578
Can you confirm as I'm a little confusedaboutthe wording of your post ....
Are you currently in the UK ?
Are you the original ownet or have you bought the iPhone privately ?
Have you ever used a Vodafone UK Sim card in the phone yourself ?
Current Phone >
Samsung Galaxy s²³ Ultra 512gb Phantom Black.

My situation is now .

I bought iphone pro max on ebay, also I bought prepaid vodafone simcard.
The question is that my iphone should I need NUC code to use another network carrier?

Hi @akak6578 the problem you will have is that you must use the phone on the Vodafone UK network for 30 days with the SIM card you purchased then request the unlock. The original owner (if they used it on the Vodafone UK network) could also request the unlock.
if they can't do that do you know anyone in the UK you could send the phone to for them to use for 30 days?

@63johnw but you said there is no code for iphone right?
28-01-2020 03:02 PM
Yes there is no code sent to customers but Apple still have to receive a request from Vodafone to unlock the phone and that's why you have to use it on the UK network so that the IMEI number can be registered against you then the unlock can be carried out.
have you tried a non Vodafone sim in the phone to confirm it is locked?

not yet< I will try. However If it is locked, should I use 30days for vodafone?

Yes but it must be used in the UK.
