Have these services worked in the past on this phone? Or have they never worked?

Toggling content lock to full, waiting for confirmation and retrying the services, and then reversing the process - has been known to work when all else has failed.

@stellatownsendx : It could be Switching Content Lock OFF or ON . It is switched on on new & upgraded contracts & seems to affect social sites. If just switching it OFF doesn't help, try switching it to STRICT, reboot your device and then switching it to OFF. That is seeming to do the trick.

If you think I helped please feel free to hit the "Thumbs Up" button below.

Have you tried following the exact same advice as in the post immediately above yours?

Did you try VPN to check if private relay is causing issues? If it works with VPN then it is network issue not a mobile setting issue in iPhone.

If you don’t have VPN then please try 1.1.1.1 app or cloudFlare DNS

@Rky  That’s not a fix that’s a work around the fix I think you’ll find having content lock changed.     And where does it state that the device is an iPhone that you assumed. 

To contact EE Customer Services dial 150 From your EE mobile or 0800 956 6000 from any other phone.

Yes that’s not a fix but part of process to assess the root cause 😊 same problem faced by other customer on Th*** operator and my this trick worked for them so they just changed it to free dns.
