    Hi ​@San9868,

     

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

     

    Could you please try the following:

    • Make sure the iD Mobile SIM/eSIM is in the device and is set as the active SIM for calls, texts and mobile data.
    • Restart your phone.
    • Turn Airplane Mode on for 30 seconds, then turn it back off.
    • Check that you have signal bars showing.
    • Ensure Mobile Data is enabled.
    • Check that Network Selection is set to Automatic.
    • If you have a dual-SIM device, make sure the iD Mobile SIM is selected as the default for the service you're having trouble with.

    iPhone

    1. Go to Settings > Mobile Service.
    2. Check that the iD Mobile SIM/eSIM is turned on.
    3. Make sure it's selected for Voice and Mobile Data.
    4. Go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset.
    5. Tap Reset Network Settings.

    Android

    1. Go to Settings > Network & Internet (or Connections).
    2. Check that the iD Mobile SIM/eSIM is enabled.
    3. Ensure it's set as the preferred SIM for calls, texts and data.
    4. Go to Settings > System (or General Management) > Reset.
    5. Select Reset Network Settings.

     

    If you're still having issues after trying the above, we'd recommend contacting our Customer Service Team via Live Chat and requesting that a technical ticket be logged.
