Hi

I am unable to make or receive calls

I still can't access the app either on my phone or on my PC

It says it will send me a one time passcode by text, but I don't get the texts

Do I need a need e-sim to activate my account?

Please help, this is my business phone so I need access ASAP

switched over to ID from O2 and used a PAC code to transfer old number over.

Hi ​@Zb001,

 

I'm really sorry to hear you're experiencing issues with your services. Please try the steps below, depending on the type of phone you have:

 

For Android:

  • Open Settings
  • Tap General Management
  • Tap Reset
  • Select Reset network settings

For iPhone:

  • Go to Settings
  • Tap Phone
  • Tap My Number
  • Delete the old number
  • Enter the new number
  • Tap Save

Then follow these steps to refresh iMessage:

  1. Go to Settings
  2. Tap Messages
  3. Turn iMessage OFF
  4. Go to Settings > General
  5. Tap Reset
  6. Choose Reset Network Settings
  7. Once your iPhone restarts, go back to Settings
  8. Tap Messages
  9. Turn iMessage ON again

Your iPhone should now recognise the new SIM and verify your number.

 

Regards,

Hi ​@Gav30lee,

 

Thanks for getting in touch, and I’m sorry you’re having trouble with incoming calls after moving over from O2.

Could you please let us know the make and model of your phone? Once we have that, we can send you some troubleshooting steps.

 

Kind regards,
