I spent 40 minutes on a callback today from a very unhelpful person, and he said the issue is Koodo's 5G doesn't work on iPhone 12. I asked him what iPhones it does work on, and that was another 5 minutes to get an unsure answer of iPhone 14 or 15.

My thought is he likely needs a new SIM card, as his is 4 years old and pre-dates Koodo having 5G. I am wondering if anybody else has run into this before I go to a Koodo store.
Has the phone's iOS been updated to 16.6 ?

Reset of network settings?

^^ Sounds like this person had to escalate it to Telus technical support and get them to reset something on their end.

As far as I know the SIM is just used to register the device on the network.
