SIM only - phone locked by old operator
I have a new ID SIM only in an old phone, when I took the SIM out in store the sales assistant told me they'd obtained the PAC? from my old operator (O2) but my phone still states locked by operator-No service can anyone tell me how to fix this...I'm paying for ID and can't use it - I also can't register on ID as when they send me security code they send it to the phone number I have no access to

Hello @Laney M ,
@DeliriousMetro Henri has answered this one for me above.
You'll need to get your handset (iPhone) unlocked first by the network it's locked to before you can use the iD SIM in your phone.
