Nokia 6700 and Sim Card Problem??

Steyr · 25-12-2010 03:43PM #1

Hi all up until I fell asleep last night at 2am my Nokia & Sim were absolutely perfect, but as I woke this morning I discovered no signal on my phone so turned it off and on again, as it came back on it didnt ask me for my password ( as it normally should ) and it says I have numbers in my sim but they wont show on the phone and the phone itself wont let me call anybody if i try to dial a number it says "emergency calls only".

I have put the sim into other phones and the same issue as above, also now saying "Sim Card Rejected"

So basically WTF???

Also I am with Vodafone.

Is the 2nd phone able to read a Vodafone SIM..? If so, seems there's a problem with the actual SIM card, as you get errors in more than one phone.

Thank you very much for your replies, I am in Galway City, do you perhaps know are vodafone open tomorrow? Will I be able to retrieve my numbers from the sim? Is my mobile phone ok or will I be purchasing a new one?

Also and lastly, I have in the region of €30 credit still in it, will I get this back off Vodafone?

It pretty much wont work in any phone, the Sim is around 2+ years I would roughly estimate.

Had a 6700 for a week and was back 3 times with it. Nothing but trouble so i exchanged it. Remember doing a google search at the time and everyone was having problems with them. It just kept turning off :mad:

And to add to that, it well nigh impossible to get them unlocked by the local unlocking boys. Have tried in several places around the west & nobody has succeeded yet:mad:
