I've landed in Cyprus, turned my phone on roaming is on, when I try to connect to make a phone call, unable to due to call barring,. Never had this before, WiFi works ok, I can dial out using what's app but not on normal calls, and people can call me,   so how do I take call barring off, I've been to the bit where I can get to call barring. Then it asks for a passcode,. No idea what to do next, help stuck in another country and no idea

@Sas456  You have a international roaming bar on your account. You need to call O2 and ask them to remove i. All numbers in this guide Guide: Coronavirus Community Help and Support

You'll need to call customer service.

You can use Skype.
Numbers here Guide: Coronavirus Community Help and Support 
When it comes to the reason you are calling stay silent for 15 seconds and you will be taken to the keypad options.
Press 2 for Everything Else
Press 5 for More Options
Press 7 for Anything Else which will put you though to someone.
Say "Upgrade", "Lost/Stolen" or "Fraud" if you have to, to get put through to someone.
8.00am is the best time to call if you can.

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 can download Skype on any device and it's free to call the 0800 numbers.
