Hey There mscc,

It sounds like you are having issues with your cellular data connection. The article below provides some steps to take to address the issue. Although the title indicates a "No Service" error message, the steps are relevant.

Are you able to connect to the internet via Wi-Fi to get your email and download apps?

If you see No Service in the status bar of your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
