So I just bought my mom a new 5s. The issue is the phone works. It can call and send texts but whenever I try going on safari it says could not activate cellular data network. You are not subscribed to a data service

Like I said, it makes call and texts but I'm getting this pop up still. I've tried a hard reset and took out SIM card. Even toggled airplane a few times. Anyone know how to fix this?

Calls and text has nothing to do with data. Seems your data is not working.
 
look at settings/cellular and see if data is turned on


oops just looked at your op and you are getting a pop-up

where did you get the sim?
