Last summer all my friends could use their roaming with no problems in Greece but with my O2 subscription I couldn't. Does anyone have any idea why and what could be done? Roaming was of course enabled on my phone but nothing happened. It works fine in Switzerland but not in Italy either, whereas again my friends were all fine

@MJ2 

Call O2 and check if there are any roaming bars on your account. 

If using an iPhone you also need the iData bolt on or change your apn to "mobile.o2.co.uk'

Manually selecting a different network and rebooting phone can also help in getting a connection.

I can't make voice calls in Greece.
Can use data and text from my bundle, but no voice calls.
I have unlimited minutes in my bundle
