SIM not recognised and cannot locate Lenovo support in UK

Hello,
After a few months running smoothly, my P780 smartphone now no longer recognises a SIM inserted in either slot. I believe this is a common issue. I have tried to find technical support but the UK is not one of the countries listed anywhere - I cannot find an address or phone number at all. 
I need a service centre somewhere in UK/ Europe to send my handset for repair/replacement. Can anyone help?
Thankyou!

Hi AWP2015
I need a service centre somewhere in UK/ Europe to send my handset for repair/replacement. Can anyone help?
Currently Lenovo dosen't sell phones in the UK and as a consequence dosen't offer support for smartphones in the UK.
Lenovo phones are sold in the EU in countries like Slovakia,the Czech Republic,Romania,Bulgaria,etc.....but as far as I know Lenovo smartphones(and i suppose you bought it from an ''International'' online site) do not have International warranty.I do not know if the Lenovo service center in those countries would accept your phone.
You could try to contact the seller or find a local ''generic'' service center.
After a few months running smoothly, my P780 smartphone now no longer recognises a SIM inserted in either slot.
Can you tell me your firmware build number?Settings->About phone....
Have you tried a factory reset?Backup anything important first.
Can you open the phone dialer and dial *#06#.By dialing that code your IMEI numbers should show up.
Are there any numbers(2 long numbers) shown?
Please don't post the IMEI numbers here.
PS.This is going to sound silly but I suppose the phone isn't in Airplane mode.
Regards.

  • Running Windows XP service pack 3. Updated Firefox from 8.0 to 9.0. Now when Firefox opens "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" is displayed in a window and no home page appears. What's wrong?

    That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • I'm not able to open a catalog. It says it is not writable and cannot be opened.

    This has been happening to me for the past few weeks.  If I close my LR5 program and try to re-open the catalog I get a error message that says
    Lightroom cannot use the catalog named "Lightroom 5 Catalog 2014" because it is not writable and cannot be opened.
    This could be caused by incorrect permissions or because another Lightroom application is using the catalog. You may try to correct the problem or you may select a different catalog.
    Then I have the option to choose a different catalog / try again / Exit
    I have to go to the backup every time.  I am currently working in Windows 8.1
    Please help!

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

    Photo Stream does not "backup" your photos, you have to do that yourself on iTunes, BUT if you have the iCloud app for your PC/Mac installed, your photos will be on there
