SIM not being recognised by new Pixel 9a phone

[JohnD2148]

Hi, I recently bought a new Pixel 9a and the phone doesn't seem to recognise when the SIM is entered. I have restarted it, and no joy. The sim works fine in my older 4a phone. Any ideas? I am not sure if the problem is with the phone or the network/sim.

Thanks in advance.

Perhaps the Pixel 9a needs a class C/1.8 volt SIM and your SIM is old and only class B/3V?

Maybe try a replacement and see if that helps:

Yes, probably the SIM class C issue alright...
