S--S,

As the issue here for outgoing calls and the calls are hanging up/dropping mid-call, setting the phone to 3g-only won't help.  The phone would already be on that type of network.

i have that same issue before 5 years ago and how to fix it is they issue with SIM card and i do replacement SIM card and i did contact CSA they say put it to 3G Network and now no issue for 11 years with PM...

Perfoming various troubleshooting steps and the the problem then going away doesn't mean that's what fixed it.  If your isssue was identical, setting yoru phone to 3g-only cannot possibly have been the fix.  The customer was already on 3g to be able to make the outgoing call in the first place.  The entire reason for setting to 3g only when there are issues with phone calls is to address the issue where the phone doesn't properly switch from the LTE to HSPA network for a phone call.  As the call had already been connected, there's no need to force a 3g connection (it was already done).

can you try manually selecting network "3G ONLY" or WCDMA only,

@Lindagmoore 

Are you a new customer that just ported over a number or did you activate with a new number?

Or, are you an existing customer that had services working fine until 'all of a sudden'?

@Lindagmoore   If it keeps happening, can you tell whether it likely happen on a particular location (like your home or office, etc).  Also, try to put your SIM in another device and see if you experience the same thing.  Just want to confirm if it is a network issue or if it is the device.

Try rebooting your phone and/or toggling airplane mode on/off. You could just have a poor network connection.

Do the calls keep dropping?  if it was just the one time or if it's no longer happening, this is likely a temporary network issue.
