New SIM card received but no network signal in Madeira

Hello,

I recently signed a new mobile contract with MEO and received the physical SIM card.

The problem is that the SIM card has no network signal, even when tested in Madeira.

We already tried:

  • inserting the SIM correctly
  • restarting the phone
  • airplane mode on/off
  • disabling another active eSIM
  • testing in Madeira

Still the SIM shows no service / no signal.

Could someone please check if the SIM card is activated correctly or advise how to replace it with an eSIM?

Thank you.

Hello ​@RobertPT351 

It should work as normal. But if you really want to use an eSIM, you can request one via the my MEO app by selecting the ‘Change SIM’ option and choosing either the ready-to-use eSIM or the option to have it sent by email.
