What do you mean it doesn't work outside your home @MeganRiley1- ?

You've not got signal?
See the two help guides below. If those don't work then please come back and provide some more details.

It only works on the WiFi. I’ve followed your links and they won’t load. I’ve also followed the instructions on the O2 website and nothing has helped.

@MeganRiley1- 

Is this a new phone?

If so, did you use your old sim or do a sim swap Guide: Sim Swap: a mini guide 2017 update ?

It could also be a mast down due to the recent storm damage.

Are all your bills up to date as well @MeganRiley1- ?

Try the links on your computer (if you have one) but they should work...
