No roaming network connection in Spain

Herb61
Tuning in

Hi - I manage x 3 Virgin pay monthly sim accounts for myself and my family. My son travelled to Spain yesterday but is unable to use any Spanish network. All settings are correct and roaming is on - in fact nothing has changed since it last worked in Europe. I've spoken to customer support who have taken a look and restarted the sim/service but still no connection with a cold phone reboot. Any advice?

Hi Herb61,

Thanks for your post and welcome back to the community!

Sorry to hear your son is facing issues with his SIM.

Can I ask whether your son is able to adjust which network they are connecting to?

Thanks,

Kain

Hi - he's tried to connect manually to all available Spanish networks without success. He's in Malaga and his friends on other providers are all able to connect.
