    try opening the sim card tray and wiggle the card about a bit and close it again

    to see if that give a connection

    then try another sim card to verify if the sim card in it is defect or if the phone is sim locked to simcards from another operator

     

    then contact apple rapair if some of the connectors which connect to the sim card have been damaged the phone would require repair
