Hey there ​@Mmoonis, sorry to hear that. So to confirm, you can call regular 07 mobile numbers okay, just not Geographical numbers?

 

Thanks,

Tyler

Hi ​@Mmoonis 

 

Do you currently have a bill cap on the account?

Hi ​@Mmoonis 

 

Has this always been the case or a problem that has recently started? 

 

Please could you let us know which type of numbers are you calling?

 

Have you tried the SIM in a different handset?
