QinYang_1314494 You may have noticed that the other posts on this thread were a long time ago.
If calls stopped working, what steps did you take to find out why? Are you still with Smarty?

yes, i am still using smarty sim on my phone, it data works well, just no calls. i tried giffgaff and vodafone sim cards on my phone, both worked well in calling. i also tried my smarty sim on another phone, it also worked in calling. i checked the APN setting, and made sure it is what 3 network requires (it should be correct otherwise i wouldn't be able to use data). my sim card setting also indicates that smarty is the primary option for calls. so, i guess it's just that my phone doesn't support smarty sim in calling. i then cleared the cache of big apps on my phone and reinstalled the phone app. still not working. do i need to switch to another phone app? any suggestions? i really don't want to try the last resort of resetting my phone to its default setting.

Hey MarkEmm_1879377,
It is likely that you were experiencing issue from the network outage on the 1st, if you are still unable to use the services I recommend contacting our chat team https://smarty.co.uk/contact available daily from 8am – 8pm.
