@MargaretHyslop  - try restarting your phone. Also try removing your SIM Card, and gently replacing it back.

If that doesn't work, perform a reset of the device's network settings.

This also resets Wi-Fi networks and passwords, cellular settings, VPN and APN settings, and connected Bluetooth devices that you've used before.

Iphone:

To Reset Network Settings, begin by opening the Settings app. Next, tap General -> Transfer or Reset iPhone -> Reset -> Reset Network Settings. and enter your passcode.

Your iPhone will reset network settings and restart itself.

android:

Find and tap Settings > System > Advanced > Reset options > Reset network settings.

@MargaretHyslop , has your payment card been debited?  That's a good sign of successful activation.  Check also the online account for active status.  Your symptoms are indicative of an inactive SIM card.
