Phone not activated

[Heaven2311]

I changed to one of the new plans offered this moth, the 39$ plan, I can receive and send texts, and receive phone calls, but when I try to make a call I get a recording saying my phone is not activated on the network……anyone know what might be happening?

Yes, I have reset the network settings a couple of times,

@Heaven2311 - have you tried to perform a Reset of your device's Network Settings, if not see if this helps. This also resets Wi-Fi networks and passwords, cellular settings, VPN and APN settings, and connected Bluetooth devices that you've used before.

Iphone: To Reset Network Settings, begin by opening the Settings app. Next, tap General -> Transfer or Reset iPhone -> Reset -> Reset Network Settings. and enter your passcode. Your iPhone will reset network settings and restart itself.

android: Find and tap Settings > System > Advanced > Reset options > Reset network settings.

EDIT: Although this sounds network or account related, try removing your SIM and try it in another phone. Do outgoing calls work? Either way, move the SIM back into your phone and then test. Sometimes the act of trying into another device may reset something in the backend.

Yes, it give a code first …..7B1

[dust2dust]

Is it giving you a code at first on that recording?

Adding- I think you'll need support to 'refresh' your service.

I just did that and keep getting the message that my phone is not activated on the network.

[dust2dust]

Can you try setting the network to 3G or WCDMA.

[Heaven2311]

I’ve tried that several times

[dust2dust]

Might it take a simple power off restart.
