Sim not recognised?

Just bought a motorolla razor 8 and put my contract sim in it and it keeps saying there is no sim? Tried my sons sim and it says the same so I know it`s not my sim but the phone.

Any ideas what could be the matter with it or anything I can do apart from take it back to the shop?

    I have no idea what a uSIM is? It`s an old sim card,probably about 8 years,works fine in my other phone and my sons phone but just not in the new phone.
