A MEP is a number that is used to
configure the lock on your phone.
Your blackberry is not locked to a
network as such, it is locked to a MEP number.
Once you have your MEP you are ready to
order the correct Blackberry unlock code from

Why Do I Need The MEP
Number To Get My Unlock Code?
Ordering an unlock code using your
IMEI and MEP is the best way, as this will give you just 1 single
unlock code that will work 100% as long as you haven't used all
tries up, and you supply the correct mep and imei when getting your
code.
Do I Really Need The MEP
To Get My BlackBerry Unlock Code?
You can order a BlackBerry unlock code
just by telling us which network it is locked to...
However, this will give you many
possible codes, as your network uses many different meps when
locking its phones.
So ordering via mep gets you the EXACT
single code you need (no more using code trys up on useless codes)
How Do I Find Out My MEP
Number?
There are 2 ways to find out the MEP
number of your blackberry
1. Via USB Cable :
If you have a USB Cable you can use this
MEP READER SOFTWARE,
this will read your IMEI and MEP numbers directly from your handset.
It will work aslong as you do not have a password in place, and
media card support is turned off. Also don't forget to install
these
BlackBerry Drivers first.
2. Without USB Cable : With the online tool below, you can find
out your MEP number from your Blackberry without connecting it to your
PC. This is a very handy tool, especially if your
BlackBerry has connection problems (Password / Media Card / IT Policy)
