Hi there, I have a Nothing Phone 2 and am using ID mobile. I am currently in Turkey and have brought 20GB add on roaming data for Turkey, valid for use on TurkCell and AVEA. 

 

I have updated my APN settings, have contacted support about this, have tried manually connecting to networks but my phone simply is not connecting to the network

 

I received a welcome text and my signal hard have R, however I am unable to load web pages or access the internet. 

 

Please help as I have paid for this service and it does not work, and I would quite like to be able to use my data that I paid for to help me navigate this beautiful country. 

 

Thank you

From the looks of it iD need to investigate this.

 

The best way would be via their live chat - https://www.idmobile.co.uk/live-chat

Its a text based format but typing talk to person should put you in direct contact with a human (rather than their chat bot). You would need to fill out certain credentials prior.

 

If they can’t get this working they should also be able to process a refund

 

edit. But tell them you had the automated rate advice text (if you got this as this is needed) and that your phone is displaying the R signifying roaming.

Hi there ​@Khan46012 

 

From what you’ve just said your phone is connecting just fine - you appear to either automatically and manually be able to connect to one of iD’s roaming partners (there is actually 3 AVEA, Vodafone and Turkcell although Turkcell includes north Cyprus)

 

So with that I’m guessing the Roam Beyond Data Add-on might not be working as it should

Is there anything I'd be able to do to fix this or would ID mobile have to reset something on their end?

 If it's dnot.possible for it to work then would I be able to get a refund on it as the product does not work as specified. 

 

Thank you
