Locked SIM

My iPhone 6S with PAYG SIM is telling me that the SIM is locked and I can't make or receive calls. I asked for an unlock yesterday via the O2 website and received an email telling me it had been done. It hasn't. It's still locked.

 

Can anyone help, please?

@PhilUttley 

Is it sim locked to another network Guide: Unlocking an O2 phone to use a different SIM card 

or do you need a PUK https://www.o2.co.uk/help/phones-sims-and-devices/unblock-your-phone ?

Thanks. I have a PUK and have used it several times (I'm told I have 5 attempts remaining) but, having entered the code, I'm asked to change and confirm my PIN but, whatever I put in, I get a message saying my SIM cannot be accessed and to contact my network provider for a PUK code!!

 

Any ideas??
