Hi everyone. We are in New York and despite following all instructions (chat closed, phone line not working) we can only use our phones on wifi. Would appreciate any help!

Can’t make phone calls send or receive text or WhatsApp will not work
I'm in the USA. My phone has worked great for the past four days all of a sudden I can't make phone calls. Send text. WhatsApp won't work. I have plenty of data it's showing 5G and it's also showing Internet. I don't know what's going on

Re: Can’t make phone calls send or receive text or WhatsApp will not work
We have 3 Sky phones and have exactly the same issue. As a woman travelling with 2 young children (who both unfortunately use the same provider and have the same issue) it's downright dangerous! Does anyone know what's happening as I can't get hold of Sky?

Roaming stopped working
On a day 7 of US trip, after duly charging me £2 a day only 12 hours previously, roaming just STOPPED. No data, at all!!
Totally ruined a day spent at Pearl Harbour and Honolulu as kept worrying I'll miss tour comms. ZERO explanation, all parameters correct, tidy, timely bill payer.

Re: Issues using phone in NYC
This has been the same for me in Houston. I wondered if it was an issue with AT &T as they have some outages showing and this is who my phone is showing as connected to.
