Getting error "6UM1 - The number you have dialled is not in service"

prov

I've been getting the following error message when trying some outgoing numbers: "6UM1 - The number you have dialled is not in service". 

I've restarted my phone and reset network settings, etc. but it's still happening.

It doesn't appear to be localized because it's happened with calls when I'm in NL, NS and ON.

I've tried from my husband's cell phone and the numbers work.  It doesn't affect all outgoing numbers.

swap sims with hubby and see if you get better results with his sim. What make / model is your phone...maybe it's missing some frequencys that PM uses for calling.

Do you get this for one particular number or for every number you dial? Maybe number is Really out of service??

Can you text that number?
Did you try adding '1' in front of area code (even if it is the same as yours - local or Canadian 'long distance')?

Can you try your sim in another phone? Can you call the numbers from a different phone/provider?
Are the numbers actually in fact not in service?

@prov 

how many is "some" ? Could be a localized outage in the area you're calling.
