Default Nokia 6300 hard locked

Is there any way of taking simlock off now?

It`s locked to T-Mobile. Going abroad and thought the best way would be to take the phone with me and buy a top-up pack there to avoid the roaming charges . Exceeded the number of tries trying to unlock by code (or accidentally keying in the same code twice) and do not know what to do now Read somewhere that it is possible to do by cable and software. Any one know where to find it? Not really a fan of paying a small fortune to have it done in the shop. Thinking of buying another phone, but hope my old phone can still be unlocked by myself.
regards
