You should just have to goto any orange shop and they will unlock it, alternatively you can buy a cable and get the software to unlock it from a few hack sites. try a search in google, but it is easier just going back to the shop and asking them to unlock it for you. Sounds like the shop you went to is maned by numbskull's try another shop instead.

which phone is it.
there is a company i bought all the unlocking stuff from and its only cost about £35 in total.

if its a 3310 check the software version, if its the latest, something like 5.56, only a hardward unlocker will do it, the cable kits in the shops won't.

You can get it done at nearly any computer fair from between £5 and £15 depending on the phone.

try these websites:

http://www.mobile-support.org/
http://www.astalavista.com/mobile/
http://mobile.box.sk

or as stimpy said at most computer fairs look in google for prestige events for computer fairs.

or as stated before also theres usually a mobile phone seller at a market and they can do it or can tell u how to do it
