My phone does not have a SIM card. But it is saying invalid sim and no sim. I cannot receive texts or calls

My phone keeps saying invalid SIM and it does not have a sim card. This is the 6th time this happens in the last two months. I cannot receive texts or phone calls. Last few times I had to update it. There is no update today.

You may have to contact Apple store or AASP inspection or service expectation.


Several newer phones have an eSIM and another place for second SIM along

with eSIM on logic board. [IF your SE-3 Edition, has place for real SIM card?]
