    Hi ​@RossO1,

     

    I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble using your Call Abroad add-on.

     

    Please try the following:

    1. Make sure you're dialling the number in the correct international format, for example using + or 00 followed by the country code.
    2. Restart your phone.
    3. Turn Airplane Mode on for 30 seconds, then turn it off again.
    4. Check that the add-on is showing as active in the iD Mobile app or your online account.
    5. Try calling a different international number to see if the issue affects all calls abroad or just one specific number.
    6. Check that your bill cap isn't preventing the call from connecting.

     

    If you've tried all of the above and you're still unable to make international calls, please contact our Live Chat team so they can investigate further: https://www.idmobile.co.uk/live-chat
