I'm not sure on legalities, but as many operators (such as Virgin) do this after you have spent a reasonable amount on credit then i'd assume they don't have any real problems with it.
Just take it down the local market and have a look around, i think they can be done.
Also, take notes on prices, to unlock my K750i the English guy who works in Frenchgate here in Doncaster quoted me £10 to unlock it, and £10 to upgrade it to the w800 firmware. Whereas the other gut in the shop (non-english) quoted me £30. Also look for some form of guarantee they accept all liability if they mess it up.
