I know - that's why I said SIM card!

Suppose you could try scratching the gold bits on the SIM card maybe it's not making 'contact' - is it an old SIM?

No just a bit of light scratching.

I had a similar problem ages ago and that sorted it out - the SIM was like several years old though.

Did you phone up your network provider in the end, or did you get it sorted yourself?
