Hi Johu! According from your description it seems you might of gotten a iPhone with a Carrier Locked SIM. If you could please follow these steps.



  1. Open Settings

  3. Then About

Scroll down until you see Carrier Lock usually on the Bottom .


If it says No Sim Restrictions then it might be the SIM Carrier issue if it says something else please reply to me.
