Hi
I’m sorry to hear this, have you tried a network settings reset?
For iPhone;
Settings > General > Transfer or Reset [Device] > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
For most Android;
Settings > System > Reset options > Reset Wi-Fi, mobile & Bluetooth
For Samsung;
Settings > General management > Reset > Reset mobile network settings
Resetting network settings will NOT reset any personal data (Photos, Videos, Contacts etc) only network settings.
If the above doesn’t help, it may be worth trying a replacement SIM card, which can be picked up at any Currys store and activated here.

I have the same issue but only had the phone 2 days before it said No SIM - No Service
Tried all of the helpful things on the website so need help
My SIM has been working, yesterday had an issue with it, I had to change my mobile now I have only internet browsing, no phone calls received or making plus if you call on social like WhatsApp, it rings but after 2 minutes of ringing from other side.

Welcome to the Community!
What is the coverage showing in your area?
Have you tried resetting your network settings and trying the SIM in a different handset?
When you connect to Wi-Fi do you still have the same issue with Whatsapp?
The link below may help you with your issue.

Thanks for your reply, the matter is resolved, real problem was new list of mobile,s removed to operate on 🆔 mobile network, my Samsung galaxy j3 (2017) was in that list, went to PC Currys 🆔 mobile desk at braehead, Glasgow, the sales girl informed, I had to buy a new 5g mobile and it started working right away.
