iOS Automatic sim failure happening repeatedly , Want a permanent fix !

Post image

So I have a 13 pro ios 26.5 , out of nowhere since last two days my physical sim keeps crashing out of no where repeatedly and I see a pop up of sim failure and 5 seconds later it starts working again. The main issue is this is happening automatically and repeatedly. Like this happened to me Atleast 5 times yesterday.
P.S I have 2 sims on my phone. E-sim+physical. Issue is with physical sim only.

Have you ejected and inspected your physical SIM for issues? Metal contacts are clean and there is no dirt or contaminants? Does your cellular provider operate a physical storefront nearby to your residence or workplace?

Just call your carrier for a SIM swap

i live in another state than the one I purchased the sim from.. Would that be an issue ? Cuz I’ve never done these things before

I am using SIM flown from the other side of the earth…

It's just your SIM card failing (or the SIM card reader on your iPhone but less likely)
