Update 21:45

We can see performance improving back to normal levels and are working through the night to ensure this issue is fully resolved - we are closely monitoring this situation.

Some customers may still experience intermittent issues. We will update again in the morning.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Is there an issue with getting through to voicemail? I don't even hear a dialing - it says calling but that's it, nothing else?

[MightMat007]

I've been with Smarty for a few months now and not had a signle issue, then today i suddenly can not make or receive phone calls, when trying to make an outgoing one it just sayd "dialing" constantly and then if i try calling the number it will ring but nothing shows up on the phone as an incoming call.

Data and texting works fine though.

I've reset the phone, reset the connections, switched sim positions and even tried the sim in another device and all exactly the same.

any ideas or assistance will be greatly appreciated

What's the point of having a Network Status Checker page that returns a "Our system hasn't reported any network issues" message, when you have clearly acknowledged in this support thread that there is a known issue? Smarty need to update their processes.

[Mariusz_3360347]

indeed

Is anyone having issues? I've got 5g and a good signal but when i try to make a call its just silence. Been on smarty with this phone for nearly 2yrs. Texts are coming through and internet is fine. Based in S Yorks. Thanks

Same here too, in Saddleworth.  Looks like a network issue. And right on the day I've got my car in for a service and expecting a call when it's done!

[Lee_41]

Yep, same issue here too, Saddleworth

Same problem in SE London call doesn't work at all.
Smarty support doesn't exist 

[Mariusz_3360347]

Same issue in SE London, I checked my sim on 2 phones with same result.

Silence wile trying to make a call

This past two days, every-time I try to make an outgoing call the phone gets knocked off the Three/Smarty network.  I contacted Smarty support and was asked to "Reset my Network settings" which I refused to do because it deletes all of my saved Wifi passwords, removes all of my connected Bluetooth devices and having done this in the past consider it to be a waste of time.  Anyway, after arguing my point, the support person finally did a check and said that there was "upgrade/maintenance" work going on in my area, but only can be seen by Smarty employees!  I checked the "Network Status Checker" and nothing!  No SMS to inform customers of the planned work either.  This seems to be Smarty/Three's Modus operandi, what is the point of the Network Status Checker then?!?

[Mariusz_3360347]

yes smarty is ok as long as it works, when there is a problem, there is no support.
Fortunately there is a large selection of new operators, you have to stop paying for a service that does not work.
And the best thing to do is to file a class action lawsuit

How would that work?

[Sehnsucht]

It wouldn't - there's no such thing here!

[RickyHo_3241370]

[JamesElliker]

No calls inbound or outbound in Bradford, West Yorkshire

[MartinJ_2457459]

Same in Dorset. Texts and mobile data fine, just calls.

[StevenP_3155449]

Looks like it maybe a national outage, no calls here up in West Yorkshire.
