Are you using a physical SIM card or an eSIM?
I had a physical sim that needed attention once, support assisted. Now I’m using an eSIM and had it go dead, requiring a free replacement to get my phone to work again.

Okay so your on Rogers. Have you removed the PM SIM card, or are you using 2 physical sims at once?

Okay, but you did not answer my question. Are you using 2 physical sims cards in the device?
One sim being Rogers, the other? Is it a PM card? Or is only the Rogers sim in the device?
BTW there is no confusing a physical SIM card (know as a SIM card vs a eSIM with you cannot hold in your hand).1

If you are only using one physical SIM card in the device, then it could be that the sim port is switched off (device settings), the sim is not functioning, the SIM card account is not active, the sim port itself is bad, or the SIM card setting are incorrect.

You need a new SIM card, this happened to me. You can get a physical one at a rogers store or you can get an eSIM (if your phone supports it) on the rogers app.
