The PUK code is not the same as the PIN code. If you enter the wrong PIN code too many times, it will as a last resort ask for the PUK code. If you enter the wrong PUK code too many time it will destroy the SIM card and you will need to purchase another from your carrier.

In any case, this is something that can only be resolved by contacting your carrier. They will be able to provide you the PUK code. It is not something you can find on your own.

It's amazing how easy it is to find information on the internet these days. When I was young, we had to go to the library.

Back in the early 1980’s my small company sublet office space to a smaller company called FYI, run by 3 women. You could call them with a question, either a significant one such as the prospects for world peace or just a question to decide a bar bet and they would research it for you and send you an answer, or a report if it was a complex question. Their rates were low enough so they were a practical source for bar bets, but enough so they could make a living.

Sounds a bit like Hepburn's job in "Desk Set", one of my favorite movies.

I didn’t even know I had a PUK code. Could you tell me where I can find it? I don’t seem to be able to make any calls or receive any calls. Thank you

Using another phone......You call your carrier to find out what the PUK code might be.

From a different phone, since the one you have is not working......you call your carrier's support line. They might have a troubleshooting site as well.

You will find that info here on this page as well as the solution before you are required to purchase another SIM card.
