I cannot make a call as the phone cuts off. Cannot receive calls but I am told that phone is ringing and messages sent but again nothing on my end

@Loonie  Can you confirm your account is active and not suspended? Log into your account to check also can try rebooting the phone see if that helps or try the SIM card in another phone assuming it’s physical SIM card and not eSIM help determine if it’s account issue or device issue . Can also check 

Outage map in your area:

hi @Loonie 

what phone do you have?
Are you a new  or existing customer?

does data work?

did you try reboot the phone and Reset network settings?  

Telus is refarming all of their 850 to 10 MHz LTE B5 in their markets, mainly BC, AB, Windsor, Ottawa, GTA area Montreal, Quebec City.   Bell has not done this, so it won't affect area that has Bell networks which Telus/PM use

So, if your phone has only 850 Band 5 on the phone but lacks 1900 Mhz, if your phone were bought from another country, or an imported model, then you might be impacted
On the other hand,  if the phone has 1900 Mhz,  or it is a Canadian/US model,  it likely won't be impacted and won't see service degraded

yes.  Some have this problem due to some changes with the network 

what phone do you have?  PM uses Telus and Bell Network.  Telus is in the process or realigning some 850 Mhz channel on its 3G network for other use.  People who have phones that is not whitelist on PM VoLTE list (some older phones) and  those do not have 1900Mhz (phones that are not designed primarily for North America) will have voice trouble.

So, depends on the phone you have, it might not be something that can be fixed unless you change phone, or if your phone has VoLTE, then you can move to Koodo or Telus

@Loonie , what phone are you using?  If your phone is not VoLTE compliant, it can results in reduced calling capability as this service repurposes existing 3G spectrum to LTE service.
