[Network Issue] Service Update - Resolved
Hi all,
Suddenly my iPhone will no longer ring out or receive calls?!
If I try to make a call it looks like it’s ringing out but is silent and doesn’t connect. Does show in outgoing call list.
Receiving calls, don’t show in missed calls list, rings out for others then to voicemail.
Texts still fine etc.
Already checked: Volume, silent, focus, accessibility settings, ringtones, SIM card works in another iPhone, my iPhone works with another sim too, payment is fine and current.
Anyone who can throw any light on what could be happening? I confess it’s doing my head in now 🤯😂
not working in Hinckley Leicestershire either been down since at least 1pm
Not working for calls in Solihull either, text and emails work though.
Not working in Bradford, I’ve all need to ask for a refund for today’s service not working compensation
Unhappycustom Refund for one day? Say plan costs £20 max. then for a 31 day month, we re talking 65p tops. Careful how you spend it!
Same issue from this afternoon on iPhone 16, in Stockport area
Yep, similar issue down in Poole, Dorset.
can't send or receive calls, not working in derby as of this afternoon...was working in the morning
We're having the same issue with our two Smarty iPhones in Northamptonshire. Very frustrating - I had to knock at the neighbours to make a call.
All of our Smarty handsets are now experiencing the same issue as from this afternoon. Interestingly they do work in another location. signal / mast issue maybe? Unusual why they won’t wifi call though
This has now started happening to my wifs and my phone as well in the last 2 weeks - it's clearly some sort of network issue, which Smarty need to sort. I'd days away from giving up (have tried everything) and just going back to giffgaff.
NigelMo_2184249 What makes and models of phones are they?
Originally iphone X, thought replacing it would help, so then iphone 11, and mine is iphone 12
I just started using my new iPhone a few days ago and I have the same problem with my sim card. I can't make or receive any calls. No matter what I tried to fix the issue I still cannot call or receive calls at all. This is so frustrating!
DanielA_3061761 From what you say, the sim was working in your old phone - correct?
This leaves the possibility that either it was not inserted correctly in the new phone, or damaged while being transferred, or the new phone settings are not correct.
Perhaps you can check that the phone shows Smarty network.
Hi KD 👋
You are very welcome and I'm so glad that you found the answer (and with the help of SMARTY Help as well... who knew?!?!? 🤔😂)!
x xHi. I am unable to receive normal calls. I get no missed call. Where do I find this VOLTE eating to turn on pls?
Kulvinder_95921 If your iPhone is younger than iPhone 5, then it should work automatically - you do not need to do anything other than check Settings>Mobile Service>Mobile Data Options>Voice & Data set to 5G Auto and all should be fine.
Have you checked Coverage for your area as well as Network Status for any local mast problems?
