phone will not receive calls or text messages

[MikeD99]

Bought a new phone because we thought the old one was just too old. Same issues persist. Phone will not receive calls or text messages and iMessage cannot be turned on. Reset Network Settings will allow it to work until you open the iMessage app. Restores all text messages on the phone that it ever received each time the Network settings are reset then goes right back to not receiving calls or text messages.
