fastboot unlock FAILED

I'm trying to allow bootloader unlock but keep getting the error above. I've seen various posts on this in the past but am still stumped after doing the following :

- the phone is an xperia Z3 compact
- enabled Developer options
- enabled USB debugging
- allowed installation of apps from unknown sources
- set 'Install software' with USB Connectivity
- unlocked sim (network unlocked)
- received unlock code from Sony
- running software on Ubuntu linux

Commands I've run
=================
fastboot -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xB9D9999DF99BDB9A
...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.003s
root@boz-Aspire-5720:~# fastboot getvar version
version: 0.5
finished. total time: 0.002s
root@boz-Aspire-5720:~# fastboot devices
YT9110A9BX fastboot

Anybody got any other ideas ? Thanks in advance.
