I have 200 mins Canada wide plan ,etc,etc. But I am unable to make a phone call anywhere as I keep being told that I don’t have a long distance add -on. Please help ; I don’t understand this.   xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.  My wife’s phone is okay!

In the same place you will find also free 2gb of data.

You can also use fongo to initiate call if you have unlimited incoming (100 minutes)

If you are on data only plan then you won't be able to call, i suggest you switch to 25 plan, it's cheaper and you get much more

We only have 100 minutes plan and there is old 50 minutes plan, which one do you have?

If you ran out you could take advantage of holiday giveaway, they give 500 minutes for $0. You only need to login and make the purchase in your add-on section

The 200 mintue add-on isn't a standalone plan.  It must be used in conjunction with an active price plan. Did your last renewal go through fine?

Try calling your wife with a ( 1 ) in front if the number and let the message finish and see if your call connects. If not wait one hour. Reboot your phone and try again. If the problem persists contact the moderators and ask them to reprovision your simcard/account reset. 

This happens occasionally you need your sim reprovisioned.

 @Kkelly : can you text in/out? Take calls? Browse internet on cell data - not wifi?
