Keeps dropping calls with US add on

Whenever I add talk and text for a 10 period add on, I have about a minute or less to talk.  I hear a series of beeps and then I lose the call.  Has anyone else experienced this and is there a fix?

@pauldv  Others have been reporting similar problems. It appears that there is a problem with the addon, best to submit a ticket to PM asap.

@pauldv  A temporary fix if you have mobile data working and/or access to Wi-Fi, you can always make calls to US and Canadian phone number for free over data using Hangouts Dialer for Android or Hangouts for iPhone.  If you have access to incoming text, you can even have Hangouts/Dialer verify your PM phone number by sending you a code over SMS, and then have it use your regular PM phone number for outbound caller ID so your friends and family won't even notice the different.  More details here.

Try to manually select one of the other carriers:

AT&T or T mobile

 

Or try rebooting your phone or network reset.

@pauldvDid you buy more than 1 us add on? Apparently there are issues like this with dropped calls as per some old posts by @srlawren

Try manually selecting either of T-mobile or AT&T whichever works best.
