Hello all
I have got an iphone 4s today.
I have managed to put my contacts in....but that is it!
It won't make calls and I'm not sure how to use data, I have internet at home...do I use that Wi fi?? How do I use internet I'm on a bus, say?
Any help would be much appreciated as I am very untechnical!

Phone needs a sim card in, needs to be on a network the phone is locked to if its not unlocked.
Then you need a data allowance on your contract or pay as you go. That's how you can access internet outside of home. Use your wi-fi while you're at home to save on using up your data allowance.Internet earnings:

Turn data updates off.

I have unlimited data on my contract.
It says no service at the top of the screen so I cannot even make calls

Is this is second hand phone? Is it locked to a network other than the one your SIM is from?0

Well if it's showing "No Service" contact your provider, because either the phone or the SIM is faulty or misconfigured.0

Your provider will need to deactivate your old SIM and activate your new one. You need to let them know that you are ready for this.Are you for real? - Glass Half Empty??
