I bought a one month  roaming abroad pass for iom and usa . It worked fine in iom but is not working in usa, even though I have received text to confirm I have the pass and am in usa. I can't call you to seek advice.  Please help

Thanks for confirming that @smblevins 

What model of phone are you using at the moment?

In order to receive text messages abroad, you would have been connected to a network, thus proving that roaming is enabled and that is unlikely to be the issue.

As per previous posts above but not answered, can you clarify what you mean your roaming add-on not working in the USA? In other words, can you explain the problem you're having?

I understand that this is far from ideal @smblevins.

Are you able to reach out to us from anyone you're travelling with's phone using the details on our Contact Us page, so we can find out why this is happening?

Rather than starting another separate thread for the same issue, it's better to use the "reply" function in this one to keep all posts in the same place.

You've mentioned in a previous post that you received the welcome text on first arrival, thus roaming is enabled. What happens when you try making a call or sending a text?

Have you tried performing a manual network search and selecting an alternative operator? Are the symptoms identical across those networks?

Do you have a spend cap in-place?
