Everything was fine for two days but now I can't make a call and just get a number incorrectly formatted message if I try to send a text. I can receive calls and texts tho.

Can anyone help?

Hi @BClaret1

 

Thanks for coming to the community. 

 

Is this happening with more than one number? 

 

Have you tried selecting a different network in the phone settings? 

 

Thanks. 

 

Leanne. 

It's all the numbers. I've tried wi-fi calling and it's just the same

Hi @BClaret1

 

WiFi Calling is for use in the UK, can you try manually going into your phone settings and selecting a different network in Spain, does this work for you? 

 

Leanne.

There is only one network available...

Thanks for checking @BClaret1

 

Can you try restarting your phone and try to make a call, does this work for you? 

 

Leanne.

I've tried that already, it didn't work

Is anyone else having the same problem @BClaret1

 

Can you send BALANCE to 150 as a text, does this send and do you get a reply?

 

Leanne.

Texting to 150 worked and got a reply. No one else appears to be having this problem.

Thanks @BClaret1

 

How many numbers are affected? 

 

Are they UK mobile numbers? 

 

Have you been able to text and call these numbers in Spain since you arrived?
