Just joined...just leaving
Switched over from ID mobile about 1 week ago and since then have no connection at all. I can connect to Wifi and make wifi calls, but when out and about the Sim shows no connection and and excalamation over my Pixel 9 Signal status. Obviously I've checked my APN details against those supplied, restarted, ejected and reinserted SIM...nothing.
Smarty is very stupiddy...
Wow, nothing but profound problems -- I have paid but they won't hook me hooked me up to to my line. I keep getting chirpy messages telling me to sort out my own phone so I connect woth them! will be asking for my pac code as soon as they (if they know how) get my number transferred. I have discovered recently it is very important to find out if the customer service of a mobile phone company is based in Europe rather than India.. Oops, I forgot to ask, but 1 minute on the Web chat and belatedly figured out to my horror it was India. I am just praying they can manage the number switch before the end of the month. In the meantime I still have my Lycamobile (I was leaving them because they are based in Sri Lanka, haha) I cannot believe Which? have them as a recommended supplier. In the future I will never trust Which?

Change of plan from data only to the one with calls and messages
Hello, I recently bought a data plan with a physical card but i need a phone number. How can i change my plan from data only to a standard "Unlimited calls and messages + data"? I'd be really thankful for any help because I can't find any solution for this problem.
E-Sim with new phone problems no calls texts etc
I have recently upgraded from an Iphone 13 to an Iphone 15 and transferred everything over using the E-Simm option - I cannot access any networks, make or receive calls or text and anything outside of normal wifi I cannot receive. I have not changed my mobile number or any other details just the phone4 days without service after porting - number never bound to eSIM - forced to leave
I ported my number to Smarty on 3rd June 2026. My number never bound to any Smarty eSIM. I had 4 replacement eSIMs issued across 4 days, multiple agents giving the same ineffective reset instructions repeatedly, and one agent closing the chat claiming the issue was resolved when it was not. After 4 days of complete service loss as a business owner, missing critical calls and communications, I was forced to port away to another provider. Smarty offered £10 as full and final compensation, which I refused. I now have an active Resolver complaint open and will be escalating to the Communications Ombudsman if not resolved adequately. If you are considering porting to Smarty via eSIM, be aware that their backend provisioning process and support team are not equipped to handle porting failures. The network itself is fine but their customer service is not fit for business use.
