Can you try the SIM in another phone to see if it works?

Or at least reseat the card (remove, wait 30' and reinstall.

If nothing works, it could be a SIM provisioning issue that needs Customer Service help:

@maryamsirvan  Did you try to put the SIM in another phone and do you get the same issue

 

What kind of phone do you have?

 

But it sound like the SIM not provision properly.  If putting the SIM in another phone does not resolve the issue, open a ticket with PM to confirm if activation was done properly on the back end

Can you set the preferred network to 3G and reboot and see if that makes a difference?
