Long Distance Add-Ons Doesn't Work

FayeGao — Fri, 19 Apr 2024 21:04:14 GMT

Hello,

I purchased 300 International Long Distance Minutes add-ons and it shows on my account overview. But I still cannot call US from Canada. Get 'Sorry, your call cannot be completed since you used all available minutes'.

I assume the add on would take effects immediately after the purchase. And I have restarted my phone, but cannot call US.

@FayeGao You have the wrong add-on, you need the United States long distance add-on. You can contact customer service at the chat icon bottom right of this page and ask them to switch. If you need it urgently then go get the right add-on and then see if they will credit you for the international one. Make sure to get the US long distance add on and not a US roaming add on

These are the countries for international calling for 300 minutes. Calling to these countries from Canada to the countries below.

to call USA have to buy us add-on.

@Sansan That list doesn't look right, UK for example is a separate add on - it doesn't match the one in the long distance listing here

Good to know, I thought international call would include US and other countries.

@Phil_Adelphus You know what,? I see that list but there's been debate about it. I've seen many posts saying what you have provided is not correct. Others have posted it and have been corrected.

Prehaps I'm incorrect, but....?

It's confusing 😕.

US is in a class by itself ☺️

@Sansan Can you find a post where the PM long distance list is incorrect? It's the one I've usually seen posted here, i.e. Australia, Austria, Bangladesh, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Peru, Poland, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Romania, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Thailand, Venezuela.

Your list includes the UK, which is also a separate add-on. There is another international add on that was a Christmas bonus and it is different from the paid one and does include UK and US.

I'm probably outdated and you are correct. I will review later. 📖 😊

@Phil_Adelphus I've exhausted my search and I cannot find them. Go figure 🤔.

You are correct, as you know 🤝. I will remove my list. 😊
