iPhone 5 missing calls with new sim

Anonymous
Not applicable

I am missing calls from people that ring me since I up graded to Iphone5 with new nano sim. I have signal bars but my calls go straight to "your call cannot be accepted at the moment blah blah blah" the caller then sends me a text to tell me about the reply I am getting. I have to switch on airplane mode then off again and if that doesn't work I have to switch my phone on and off again to get it to work. Can anyone help with this

Some iphones do have an issue receiving the O2 network signal even when showing ok on the phone. I would make a trip to an Apple store after making an appointment and have the phone checked out. You seem to have tried the normal fixes.

You could try a new nano sim and also resetting the iPhones settings.

Sometimes restoring as new can help too.

I believe O2 prioritise data over voice, so this means, in theory at least, if your phone is downloading data (syncing, updating, on internet etc) you will not have any 2G connectivity.
I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.
