Troubleshooting SIM Cards:

A. Screenshot:

Can you provide a screenshot? That would most certainly help. Go Here: Take a Screenshot on your iPhone - Apple Support IMPORTANT: Leave out personal info (i.e. names) by blocking it out with the Photos app.


B. Contact your Carrier:

If you cannot get service on your iPhone, then contact your Carrier. The SIM card is probably misconfigured or damaged. You carrier would replace this. as they are the one who configures the SIM card.
