Hi there,

 

Can anyone help me? I have just inserted a new SIM card into my Iphone 8 Plus but I keep getting an error message stating that the: Phone is not activated.

 

Does anyone know how to fix this? As I need to activate my phone and the previous SIM card worked perfectly.

 

Many thanks

You need an active sim with a network data connection.

If it's a PAYG sim, you need to top up Guide How to Top Up (PAYG) 

If the phone is locked to a different network, you will need that. network to unlock it first.
