Have you topped up to activate the sim?

Sorry but not sure what you mean by "no sound"?

Have been on myo2 seems all information, bundles tarriff, top up date appears. My wife tried to call my phone but it goes straight to o2 answering service. It says the person you called is unavailable to answer. About the no sound query, there is no ring tone.

Try rebooting the phone first but there's a possibility it's faulty if that doesn't work.

Tried a reboot, same result. Was dreading that, I had a fear that it was faulty. Will return it. Many thanks for your patience and help.
