You have 3 possibilities:

The SIM you're trying to use is defective. (ask for a new one)

The SIM card holder on your iphone if defective. Have it checked at your nearest Apple Store.

Even if you don't think so, your iphone is still carrier locked. Contact the old carrier, only the carrier can unlock your iphone (if you qualify). Talk also to the new carrier and ask them.

I don't think it could be a matter of settings.
