Callers hearing international dialling tone although I’m in the UK

  • Certain callers are getting the international dialling  tone when they call me, despite me being in the UK. I’ve reset the phone & network settings & it hasn’t solved it. It’s costing me work, because people are abandoning calls thinking I’m abroad. It seems to of been a problem for sometime on the EE network, although I can’t find a solution for it?

I've seen similar reports previously.

To clarify though, are you saying this only affects particular inbound calls? Is it consistent to particular callers, or random?

The ringtones are generated by the core network, I'd be quite surprised if any device-based reset solved this.

My brother is on EE, Mom is on Asda mobile & they get the UK dialling tone when they call, but a Sky landline & various other mobile networks get the international ringing tone when they call?

I’ve had a new sim & it’s still happening the same.
