Is it deadlocked?

The key will will turn, it will feel like it will break but it won't.

It will turn to the point you think it will break, but keep on going!

Just confirm, its not deadlocked is it?

Oh, thats going to cause issues.  :(

What was the process you did?

Pop & release bonnet, lock the car (pressing twice for deadlock) then disconnecting battery and shutting the bonnet?  :-\

Shouldn't matter about deadlock if the key is the right one ;)

The button may not pop up though ;)

Keep trying ;) This is why I always use the key a couple of times a month ::)

Guessing it's a facelift? If estate, go in through the boot

If you double clicked the 'close' on the fob, then it IS deadlocked.  ;) Just be brave & do as others here have said & force the key, it WILL unlock the door, but as has also been said, don't expect the button to pop up as normal. You could always reconnect the battery & unlock it, then just lock the doors the old fashioned way.  :y
