Sim Greyed Out

[#1]

For about a month, when I make a call the plusnet SIM is greyed out, saying service unavailable. I have to wait about 30 seconds for it to activate. It seemed to start happening one month when I used up my smart cap - but this may be a coincidence.This happens now virtually everytime I make a call. The call also breaks off after approximately 1 hour. I now find out that others in the house using Plusnet sims have the same issue (different model of phones). They also say that standard text can take an age to send, saying "connecting".

We have good signal here, so its certainly not that. When the sims appear greyed out, there is at least 4 bars on the signal. And the above scenario seems to rule out a faulty sim or phone.My sim has been in use for well over 18 months, and the phone for about the same time.

Its becoming a safetly issue as we do not have landlines.
