Mobile data not working


Steph Stephens

Been using the same phone and sim for an over a year but in the last couple of weeks my mobile data just isn’t working. It’s showing as having full strength 4g but won’t load anything. The coverage says excellent coverage in my area too

Perhaps Three UK (the iD Mobile network partner) are doing upgrade work on the cell tower / network in your location, as part of 3G shutdown.

Otherwise, there might network fault/issue in your area.

Hi @Steph Stephens 

 

Sorry to hear this, please could you let us know the postcode(s) where you’re having these issues?

 

Do you have these issues everywhere or just some areas?

Hi @thasee25,

Welcome to the Community!

Is this a sudden change?

I would advise checking the coverage and network status at the link below:

You should be able to reset your network settings via your settings.

Hi ​@Andre Sowik,

Welcome to the Community!

It sounds like it may be a faulty handset, please can you swap SIM’s and check if you have the same result with your SIM in her handset?

Hi

My data isn't working when I make a phone call. I have done all trouble Shooting. 

It's not my handset as I have tried other sim in the phone. How can this be fixed as I m paying money and not getting the full service!

Hi ​@smkhan,

Welcome to the Community!

Does the data not load at all?

Does your coverage change when you try and use data when on a call?
