Hi ​@FreddieH

 

Thank you for reaching out, and we're sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with calls dropping.

 

The symptoms you've described, where you hear a ping or tone before the call drops, can sometimes be related to network settings, Wi-Fi Calling, handset software, or signal fluctuations.

 

Please try the following troubleshooting steps:

  • Restart your handset
  • Toggle Airplane Mode on for 60 seconds and then off
  • Ensure your handset software is fully up to date
  • Set the handset to 4G/LTE for calls if this option is available
  • Disable Wi-Fi Calling temporarily and test calls again
  • Reset your network settings:
    • iPhone: Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    • Android: Settings > General Management/System > Reset > Reset Mobile Network Settings
  • If possible, test the SIM in another unlocked handset

If the issue continues after completing the troubleshooting steps, please contact us via Live Chat or send us a direct message through our social media channels, where a member of the team will be able to investigate this further with you.
