You seem to be using an iPhone?

We you risking abroad recently?

Even if not maybe this is relevant and you're suffering from the usual iPhone (roaming) profile problem due to the stupid way that Apple do things?

No it's not down.

Did you get coverage before ok?

Did anything change on your phone?

Are you sure that all settings are correct?

Hope this helps.

So inadvertently roaming on an NI/UK network could have caused problems due to the stupid way that Apple do things.

Did you try this tip?

Sorry - mixing up the two people on this thread...

Have you checked that your settings are still correct?

Unfortunately Samsung Galaxy phones are second only to iPhones in terms of causing problems.

In particular they have an unfortunate habit of spontaneously losing their settings (e.g. APN, roaming etc.) causing them to stop working on some networks.

This is a common (global!) problem reported many times on lots of forums but with no obvious fix that I know of.

Other than to reconfigure any settings that are wrong.

Hope this helps.
