Today my phone suddenly started saying "No Sim", i've tried turning it off and on, cleaned the sim card with a soft cloth and still nothing is working... Don't really know what else to do or how to get a esim

Hi @Ellieangelica 

he reason why your phone show no SIM card error is that your phone is unable to properly read the contents of your SIM card. This usually happens when your SIM card is not installed properly, it is damaged, or your phone has software problems after a software update. Therefore, the phone will not recognize the SIM card and it says no sim card detected.

You could try your sim in another phone, if it doesn't work, then you need a new sim which you can get from any O2 shop. If it does work then it's a problem with your phone.

There are a series of fixes for Android phones showing No Sim, in this article. See if they help

If you need an esim pack then you have to get this in store.

Hope all this help and welcome to the forum. 👍
