I paid for 15 pounds for a month of roaming in Australia and it’s not working. It says it’s in my add one but my phone only works near wifi

Hi @Skendo.

Before leaving the UK did you activate roaming by texting ROAMING to 150?

Speak soon, 

Katie

I did, I activated it before I left London…

What happens if you try to manually connect to a local network @Skendo?

Have you tried switching your device off and on?

Katie

I don’t know how to manually connect to a local network!
And yeah tried switching on and off…

Hi @Skendo

You can do this by following these steps on your iPhone;

Settings > Mobile Data > Network Selection. 

Katie

I just tried that. I went into network selection and switched off ‘automatic’ and then just got the spinning wheel of death
