Please check your settings , you can import them from the SIM Card if they already saved there

This also happened to me twice after upgrade to ios7. I think people think that this is about setting. I can tell u that my contacts disappear suddenly under my eyes while i'm using my iphone. All contacts gone by sudden. I check my icloud on pc, luckily all contacts still there. Check back my iphone icloud setting, contacts is "ON". I tried to turn it off and on again then my contacts just came back. Only the custom ringtone was been reset to default. This happen about 3 months ago. THEN, this happened again 2 days ago. Without my noticed, the contacts restore back but i only found it because once again it reset my custom ringtones to default. This time besides my contacts, my calendars also disappeared. I turn it off and on again in icloud setting then just get it back. But in my calendars appear some custom calendars not belong to me. I think icloud is unstable.
