Move to a location where you get a signal from your network provider.

Thank you chuck fickens but I am in a place where I get a signal from my provider. I am at home and it has always worked before.

Take the sim card out and clean the contacts.

"When I was in hospital last week, my phone displayed "hospital"! How did it know?"
It probably detected the smell of urine, vomit, and disinfectant.

Thank you all very much for your replies - I had already done all of those things and have repeated them again but still no joy. I will have to go into town and take it to the Orange shop if it ever stops raining! Perhaps I need a new phone it is about three years old.

[Hopkirk]

Three years old? Brand new as far as I'm concerned.

It's probably the sim card at fault.

Thank you for your replies, I have now sorted the problem out. I had tried to do it on the 'phone with Orange but was told to take it to the Orange shop which I did. They said it was the sim card and put in a new one and said it could take 24 hours. This did not work so I rang Orange again and this time I was lucky and got a fantastic guy called Daniel who went through everything with me on my phone and it was a connectivity problem. I just had to change the setting to the correct Orange network.
Thank you all for your help.
