    ​@Vallal  It would appear there's a network problem across the network. Others have report the same thing from other parts of the UK on the community.

    I've had this issue - with a bad 5G network - for the last fortnight. Sucks.

    Hi ​@AM1G0,

     

    I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble.

     

    If you're unable to make outgoing calls and can't access the app or online account, please try the following:

    1. Restart your phone.
    2. Turn Airplane Mode on for 30 seconds, then turn it off again.
    3. Check whether mobile data is working.
    4. Try making a call to a different number to see if the issue affects all calls.
    5. Remove and reinsert your SIM card if you're using a physical SIM.
    6. Check for any network outages in your area using our coverage checker: https://www.idmobile.co.uk/help-and-support/coverage-checker
    7. Reset your network settings.

     

    If you're still unable to make calls after trying the above, please let us know whether incoming calls and texts are working, and we'll be happy to point you in the right direction.


    Regards,
