Dead Battery- Can't Unlock Car

[lockmac]

Hi guys.
Question: my car battery is dead and it doesnt even have enough juice in it to unlock the doors! What do I do? Clearly I need to get inside to pop the bonnet and the key wont unlock it if I put it in the key hole on the door..
Any help appreciated

Do you have an alarm?
Will the key turn?

The Key will work even though it appears it will not.
It's a bit like A STEERING WHEEL LOCK WHEN THE CAR IS OFF.

they do work when the battery is flat - just jiggle it around a bit. I had this problem on a vy ss last week.
