Try to do a force restart -> Force restart iPhone – Apple Support (UK)

Go to setting - Emegency SOS -> turn Off the options.

 

If it doesn't help, remove and reinsert the SIM card.

If it doesn't help contact your carrier, maybe the SIM card is damaged, ask for a replaced (new) card. Normally it is free.

Ask also to check if the SIM tray is bent, as even a tiny misalignment can cause the SIM card to not fully connect with the internal contacts in your iPhone.


If it doesn't help, see these Apple articles below:
