unable to make and receive calls while abroad

[GettingTiredNow]

Does anyone have contact details for technical support?

I have been on the phone with the support teams for days and no one can resolve the issue. I am abroad, my package covers Europe, but I can only receive text message - I can not send them, I can not make or receive calls. Support team sees everything is active. I have tried different devices and roaming settings - my sim behaves as it has never been activated. 

It is impossible to go through to someone knowledgeable. How to get through to technical support?

You can only contact customer service as you have done.

They would need to escalate to tech. Not something you can do.

If you're on PAYG it won't get fixed anyway as O2 PAYG  doesn't work in many EU countries currently.
