Roaming completely blocked

Hi Odido team,

I am currently traveling in Belgium and France with my husband and I have had no mobile data since we arrived. Yesterday we called Odido customer service and the agent told us that roaming was activated from your side — but nothing has changed and I still cannot connect to anything.

 

When my husband helped me check the available carriers manually on my phone, every single network showed as "forbidden" — BASE 4G, BASE 2G, Orange B 4G, Orange B 2G, Proximus 4G, Proximus 2G, and all the others. We even took a screenshot of it. This makes me think there is a roaming barring placed on my SIM, because this is clearly not something we can fix from our side.

 

We have already tried everything we could think of:

- Data roaming and mobile data are both switched ON

- We tried manually selecting every available network — all say forbidden

- Restarted the phone multiple times

- Toggled airplane mode on and off

 

I am writing this from my husband's phone using the hotel WiFi because I have no connection at all. It is quite stressful to be abroad without internet, especially when we were told yesterday that it was already fixed.

 

Could you please look into my account and remove the roaming barring as soon as possible? I am happy to share my phone number or any account details via private message.

 

Thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it!

Hello ​@maryam.nakhaei 

Do you have a betalingsregeling perhaps? That causes a barring for use outside NL.

Hi Maryam, welcome to our community. I hope you and your husband are having a great time travelling together in Belgium and France! I'm happy to look into this for you and see if there's a barring on international roaming. I've send you a private message with some questions and I look forward to your reply. Then I can help you as quickly as possible to get you connected again! 😊

Hi Maryam, thank you for the requested information via private messages. I've removed the barrings for you. You should be able to (manually) connect to the following networks. In Belgium you can connect to Orange, Proximus and Telenet. In France you can connect to Bouygues Télécom, Free Mobile, Orange France and SFR.

Good to know. You only retain the following barrings. These will not be lifted automatically. If the payment arrangement has been completed, you can contact me again to have them removed:

  • RIP - Block for 0906-0909 service numbers
  • RIP - Block International calls - service numbers
  • Third-party purchases - Block for paid content services
  • Third-party purchases - Block app store purchases via Odido invoice
  • Third-party purchases - Block online payments from third parties via Odido invoice

If it doesn't work right away, please restart your phone and try again. I'd love to hear if you're connected again!
