Roaming in USA - won't connect to any network

sylvester_campbelll — Sun, 31 Jul 2022 19:15:07 GMT

Hi, I'm abroad in the USA on a sim only contract and I've checked advanced settings on my BT account and it's set up for international use, and my phone is set up for data roaming and to auto connect to any network, but it's still not working. Any network I try to connect to says 'unavailable'. I've tried searching the forum but not found anything that works.

Anyone any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Also, I changed plan recently and while looking into this I've discovered they're charging me twice on my direct debit (the old plan which I moved from because it was a rip off *and* my new plan). Think I'll be changing providers once I'm home!

When you were activating international calling did you also set the international call spend limit to greater then £0 say £5

That's worked thankyou! Not knowing I had two numbers now I was making changes to the wrong number
