Sounds like your phone is sim locked to T-Mobile UK. Updating the firmware will not remove this lock. The lock should only be removed by first obtaining the unlock code from the network it is locked to which in this case is T-Mobile. Once you have the code, you can unlock with the code using the procedure outlined in the post linked below.

Re: software update N95

If you were able to use sim's from other carriers before then the phone is not sim locked. Updating the firmware should not affect the lock one way or another. You can update firmware yourself by using Ovi Suite.
