My phone keeps thinking there is no SIM Card.

[Guest Adrole]

Hello, my phone is a Orange Monte Carlo (OMC) I got it about 7 months ago and joined GiffGaff everything was great but a couple of weeks ago my phone started telling me there was no SIM card inserted. This was a few weeks ago now so I have been keeping an eye on it and playing around trying to figure out the problem, because I noticed sometimes if I rebooted the phone everything would be fine for a few hours maybe even a day but then it would eventually say no SIM again and the same thing goes with me taking the SIM out and putting it back in again sometimes it would fix the problem for a while but not for forever. Luckily I do not actually use my phone that much, but this does still bother me.

Really I am just looking for advise about what might be the problem and mainly what I can do about it, Thanks in advance.

May seem obvious but is your SIM card clean, free of dirt, scratches etc??

Perhaps you could also try asking someone in this forum: http://www.modaco.com/forum/542-zte-skate-skatemodacocom/
