Title: gremlins
Post by: raywilb on 24 September 2018, 22:58:14

whilst on holiday in Crete the hotel we stayed in offered free wifi but it was a nightmare & hit & miss whether a connection could be obtained. my wife connected automatically to a greek network but mine never. on arriving home my phone would connect to the data but i wasn't able to do anything. it would ring but i wasn't able to answer nor call any body. apparently my sim card was kaput tho no explanation was given.  now i am receiving loads of emails from Germany. i also are having problems with my facebook a/c. ( i very rarely use it ) logging on is taking me to the American site, my profile tells me i live in Denver. trying to contact anybody has up to now been a futile task. probably because i am talking to a machine

Please be assured that as a poor Nigerian, I will spend the money that used to be in your bank account having much more fun than you would have done. :P :P :P

Personally it sounds like there is an issue with the phone it's self. Without even a make or model, it's difficult to help. BACKUP YOUR PHONES BEFORE CONTINUING. I say this because some Android devices will wipe certain data when a new SIM is installed. Now try you wifes SIM in your phone. If it works, it's your SIM. If not, then you've already got your backup, try a factory reset of the phone and try your SIM again. If it still doesn't work, you probably need to get your phone repaired or replaced. If it's the SIM it's easier, get another SIM for the same company, then google for the 'number porting' option for that provider. It takes a little while to swap over.

If all else fails, try paying your bill!  ;D
