Staying in Guernsey when I upgraded to a sim only deal yesterday. Since then the phone hasn’t worked using data, only with wifi. I am showing signal bars and 3G (not 4G) but out of wifi range the phone just doesn’t work and says ‘not subscribed to a mobile data service’. Is this because I’m temporarily out of the UK when I upgraded?

Was the phone working OK in Guernsey before you upgraded @Clos6 ?

If so, then I think you need the idata bolt on applied again.

OR, they may have applied a roaming bar (due to you upgrading whilst out of the UK)

Either way, give customer services a call on any number in this guide. Guide: Coronavirus Community Help and Support

It maybe as you said, your out of the UK. I've seen this many times before, it's the same with SIM swaps you have to be in the UK for it to go ahead.

@Clos6 

Change your data APN to "mobile.o2.co.uk"

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.

You were right. They added the wrong bolt-on. Thank you
