    Some possibilities:

    1. SIM locked to a carrier (different to the provider's card which you inserted)
    2. Reported lost or stolen by the seller after sale and is now barred from all Southern Irish networks (insurance scam)
    3. Internal fault

    2 is unlikely due to the age/model of the phone

    Could try a full restore from scratch but I guess you've already set up as new phone which is the same.

    I'd go into settings,reset and reset network settings.
    Also do as posted above, I assume it was erased and setup as new? Could try to get a new sim, were you using the sim you have on an iPhone before?
