CAN a Simple Mobile SIM card be unlocked? I have a unlocked Blu Pure XL. I've used T-Mobile and GoSmart SIM cards in it.

I purchased a Simple Mobile SIM card because I like the plans. However, I find out later i can't use it has a Hotspot service.

Is there a way to get around this problem?
To use a device with a Simple Mobile sim card as a mobile hotspot, you have to purchase their 8GB data plan, which I believe is $60/month.
