If you’re getting a SIM card error message on your device, try these troubleshooting steps first:
Try switching your device off and on again.
If you have another Digicel SIM card, try inserting it into your device. If the error message still appears, it’s most likely your device is faulty.
Try inserting your SIM into another device. If the error message still appears, it’s most likely your SIM is faulty.
If you’ve tried these solutions the error message is still appearing, here are solutions for specific error messages.
‘Insert SIM’ or ‘SIM invalid’
An ‘Insert SIM’ or ‘SIM error’ message may indicate that your SIM:
Has not been inserted correctly.
Is damaged and cannot be read.
Is the incorrect SIM size for your device.
Different devices use different sized SIM cards. We don't recommend cutting down your SIM or using a SIM adaptor.
If you require a replacement SIM, head to your nearest Digicel store.
‘Enter PUK’
This message indicates that your PIN has been incorrectly entered a number of times and you have been locked out of your device. You’ll need to enter your PUK code to use your SIM.
‘SIM card rejected’
This message indicates that you've incorrectly entered your PUK code more than 10 times and your SIM is permanently blocked. You’ll need to arrange a replacement SIM by heading in store.
