Roaming slow initial log on
I have noticed that Smarty seems to take an age to log onto a local overseas network service provider, when arriving abroad. As usual as soon as we land I switch my iPhone 15 pro on by turning off flight mode. It then seems to take an age before the phone successfully accesses a local network. On my recent trip to Poland I was still waiting for a signal 25mins after arriving. I needed to call my pick up via WhatsApp, so we had to wait until I got service to get our pick up. Very frustrating. Previous networks I would expect to get access before I left the plane. BTW I have updated my settings. Once it logs on it works well. Any clues?2.3KViews0likes6CommentsRe: Esim
Please get on and provide an ESIM on Smarty! I may have to leave if you can’t. I want to use a local sim when outside UK and EU, so I want to me able to put a sim in my phone whilst retaining access to the Smarty network, which would work once Smarty implement eSIM. eSIM now please.24KViews1like5CommentsRe: EU Roaming
I am using SMARTY for the first time abroad and finding the EU roaming is fairly hopeless, only getting 3G irrespective of which network I log onto. Whereas in exactly the same location, my wife on giffgaff is getting a stunning 5G service. Think I’ll be going back to Giffgaff.7.7KViews1like3Comments
