That means the sim card is locked and requires a PIN or PUK code. Go back to Metro PCS and try to find someone working there who isn't an idiot.

The iphone that I have is not connected to Metro PCS at this time....I am trying to get service with the iphone through Metro....they put in a sim card and said it is locked. Will I have to go through AT&T of which I do not have service or a contract through to get this PIN or PUK code?
No. The SIM card itself is locked with a PUK code. If the phone you have is locked to AT&T, that's a different issue entirely. You will have to contact AT&T about having it unlocked. If you are not a current or former AT&T customer and can't provide a receipt for a no commitment phone purchased either directly from AT&T or from Apple at full price, they will not unlock it for you.
Thank you for that information.....are their reputable places that are able to unlock it for a price or is the phone useless...
No. ONLY the carrier the phone is locked to can legally authorize unlocking it.
