Connection

[afghanhoundy]

Since last year and very often this year I’m having issues with my service. Right in the middle of a long distance call, I am  disconnected. Then when I call back it says the number is not in service or call busy. Also a few times this year I wasn’t able to send a text to my son locally. This is very concerning to me because it’s my only way of communicating. How do I get this addressed.

This is probably related to the recent Telus outage.

Try powering off the phone, remove the SIM tray and leave out for 2 minutes, power the phone back on.

If that didn’t work, contact a CS_Agent by private messaging on the Community page so they can reset your network.

Dropped calls and the inability to send texts indicate a poor connection to the network. When this occurs reboot your phone and then toggle airplane mode on/off. This will completely disconnect you from the network and re'establish a new connection. If this does not clear up the problem then it could be a provisioning issue. There are a set of provisioniing troubleshooting tips we can run you thru if need be.

If you search a little bit through this forum you will find quite a number of posts complaining about connection, no signal and similar.

Official explanation is Telus is doing some maintenance and potential interruptions might occur.

Try removing your sim card and gently cleaning the contacts with a pencil eraser. Then reinsert the SIM card.

If you are able to try another device for a while, do so to see if the problem persists.

This at least will tell you whether it is a service issue with public mobile or a device issue.
