If you've still got your old phone (maybe an iPhone 4/4s..) and you have a SIM adapter (little black piece of plastic that 'converts' your nano SIM to a Micro SIM) then try the SIM in your old phone.  If you get No Service, then you'll need to ring O2.  If you get Service, then the issue is probably with your iPhone 5.

 

Don't panic though, it might just be software which you can upgrade / re-install following instructions http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414

 

By the way, if you're lucky, you might have got the adapter with your phone.

Keep rebooting your phone until you get signal, then try texting or calling, if no luck by tomorrow contact cs

You probably have a block on your account too so get CS to remove it.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
