Can't receive calls/texts

Phone can't receive any calls/texts today, outgoing for both is fine.  Have tried the obvious, restart phone (iphone SE), remove SIM and put back in and checked handset is ok by putting another SIM in it which works fine.

 

Any suggestions as a mobile being unable to receive is a bit of an issue?

Not yet, odd as we have 2 Plusnet mobiles and one works fine, swapped SIMs and problem follows the SIM so account not handset related.

Re: Can't receive calls/texts

Been having this problem since 11am, same problem as pjex, can send messages and calls out but can't receive messages and calls, calls go to voice mail. Tried the same obvious as pjex, reinstalled/updated the message app, tried new message apps still the same problem.

Re: Can't receive calls/texts

I spoke to customer services about half an hour ago, its an issue they are aware of and trying to fix now, no indication given about how long it will take or what the issue is.

Re: Can't receive calls/texts

Hi, I'm still having this problem. I can make calls but anytime someone tries to call me it just cuts off without connecting, even though I have a full signal on my phone. Any update on a fix?

Re: Can't receive calls/texts

I don't know why they haven't posted the fix, I got sorted on Friday. Go into network operator settings turn off automatic selection, select another operator such as O2 or Vodafone, this will disconnect you from Plusnet. Then select Plusnet 4g. Then all my SMS arrived and I could receive calls. Hope that works for you
