Making calls in greece


We are in Santorini now the data is working OK 👍 but when you try and make a voice call everything it's diverted to an answering machine any advice appreciated thanks 😊

Okay @Anne2705, are you having trouble calling UK or Greek mobile numbers, or both? 

Data roaming and SMS text messaging can work even when you can’t make calls - there might a network fault in Greece. 

The iD roaming partners in Greece are Cosmote (T-Mobile), Vodafone, and Nova.

Does this happen with landlines only, mobiles only, or both, @Anne2705?

Are you calling UK or Greek numbers, or both? 

Did you get a roaming rates message from iD Mobile when you arrived in Santorini?

You may need to manually select another one of the Greek roaming networks, @Anne2705

Not sure if all 3 provide coverage on Santorini though.

Hi there @Anne2705, welcome to Community!

 

We hope the kind advice from @andewhite has been able to help thus far.

 

Can you confirm if you’re still having issues making calls back to the UK please?

 

Thanks,

Tyler
