Sim Card not working

jay836

Last week I ported my phone number from speakout to Public. Everything was working fine. Since I had an old samsung phone with limited memory, I decided to buy MotoG7 unlocked phone from Costco. I installed my sim card into my new phone bue I started to got the message of "no service". I reinstalled my sim card back into my old samsung phone and I got the same message of no service. I went back to Walmart and told this to the sales person and she told me that she can not provide any assistance. She did install my sim card into her unlocked phone and got same message. I have placed an order for replacement sim card. Hoping that would correct the problem. 

 

Is there something else I can do to fix this problem.

Thanks

JT

Seems that only Sim card replacement can help here.

@jay836 put your g7 on airport mode, manually select PM as your network . Turn your phone off remove and reinsert the SIM and turn your phone back on.  Take it off of airplane mode.

If you've tried the sim in couple of different phones...perhaps it was somehow damaged during the process. Hopefully the new sim corrects the problem.

Unfortunately since it is not working in any phone it does seem that it is a problem with the sim card.
