No, jailbreaking wouldn't let you do that.

You need to request that vodaphone to unlock it or purchase a factory unlock.

You can get it unlocked by someone its expensive and they can do it in like 20 minutes, over here it cost me $120 to unlock my iphone. costs a lot because the current carrier takes $80+

You cant because when there unlocking it they have to get permission from the carrier and then they take the fee

Just to let you know in the UK iPhone unlocking from any shop is illegal. However im sure if you ring up your carrier they might do it for you but they could be a fee.

'Vodafone state that there is usually no charge for unlocking your phone after 12 months, but that you should phone their customer service team to check. Otherwise, pay monthly customers can expect to pay 19.99 to unlock their phone if they've only been on a contract for 3+months.'

I also read it takes around 24 hours which is very quick.

I wouldn't suggest trusting online websites to unlock your phone. I would recommend saving up the money and doing it through your provider. Much more safer
