The PUK code is for the SIM card and not the phone. 

Try the following steps at your own discretion.  I cannot guarantee that they will not cause additional problems with your phone.

When you purchased your phone the SIM card it came with was popped out of a credit card sized plastic retainer.    They will have written the PUK code on that retainer (maybe).  Try typing that  PUK code, it will ask you for a PIN number, type in the PIN you used when you first activated your SIM card, it will ask that you retype the PIN again. Retype it again and your SIM should be opened for use.

The only other way is to contact the service provider.
