Poor Service, Slow Data and Affecting everyday use.

Ever since I came back from traveling my mobile service has been dropping to no signal, slow 4G and slow 5G.

    Hi ​@molliegarrity.

     

    Thank you for sharing.I’m sorry your service has been dropping out and running slowly since you got back from travelling.

     

    Please check the coverage in your area at https://www.idmobile.co.uk/help-and-advice/coverage, as this will show whether there are any known issues where you are.

     

    If coverage looks fine, please try a network reset, as your phone may still be holding settings from the networks you used abroad.

     

    For an Android device:

    Open Settings and tap General management.
    Tap Reset.
    Tap Reset network settings.

     

    For an iPhone:

    Go to Settings > Messages and turn off iMessage.
    Go to Settings > General > Reset.
    Tap Reset Network Settings.
    Once your iPhone has restarted, go to Settings > Messages and turn iMessage back on. This will recognise your SIM and verify it.

     

    Please note that a network reset will also remove your saved Wi-Fi passwords, so you’ll need to reconnect to your Wi-Fi networks afterwards.

     

    Thanks,
