Iphone asking for SIM pin I never set upSolved

Even if you are enabling this feature for the first time, it will ask for a default SIM pin that may have been preconfigured by your carrier. 

Ok. So how can I find out what the default pin is? 

Well, you can typically get that information by contacting your network provider. Explain your situation, and they’ll provide you with the correct SIM PIN or guide you through the steps to enable it. 

Just a heads up: Avoid guessing the SIM PIN because entering the wrong Pin multiple times can permanently lock your SIM card or eSIM. 

Okay, I’ll see if I can contact my network provider to get the pin. I have only tried to guess the Pin once, and it doesn’t seem like there is any problem yet. Thank you for the heads up, I will keep that in mind. 

Hi, I’m in a bit of a situation here. I forgot the SIM PIN and tried multiple PINs, and none of them worked. Now it seems like my SIM got blocked. What do I do now? 

Well, if your SIM card is blocked, you’ll need to contact your network provider for assistance. They can provide you with a Personal Unlocking Key (PUK) that will help unlock your Sim. Keep in mind, you’ll likely need to pass a security check and prove your identity to ensure they know it’s really you are requesting the unlock. 

Thank you so much! I’ll reach out to my provider. Hopefully, I can get my Sim working again soon.
