Did you read any of the replies that have already been posted above that tell you exactly what you need to do?
My iPhone says SOS on the top corner. Why is this?
If you see SOS or "SOS only" in the status bar, your device isn't connected to your cellular network, but you can still make emergency calls through other carrier networks

I have SOS on the top right of my phone. How do I get rid of this. Can’t use phone
how can I call my carrier if I can't have outgoing or receive calls??!!>
All of the replies say to "contact" your carrier. Common sense tells you that this would be using another device with an Internet connection to reach the "chat support" at the carrier or using another phone to call the carrier.
The SOS issue is not going to go away until your carrier gets to work on the connection status between their cellular network and your phone.

Technically, it is still accessing a celllular network. What it isn't accessing is your account. No cellular signal is a different thing.
This worked for me yesterday
Since I have AT&T I signed onto my ATT App and located the send a refresh to my device Do not reboot your device when it ask you to -
Then I went into my settings - General - Shutdown - Transfer or Reset iPhone - Click Reset - Now select Reset Network Settings - now when prompted to restart the iPhone do so
Give it a few minutes then turn your iPhone back on you "should" see your carrier or in this case AT&T reappear now try making a call on carrier network if it works you are good still but give it a few minutes as mine kept going into SOS and back out but eventually it stuck on the carrier network
Then simply reconnect to your WiFi network - working
You may need to contact your carrier for help -
