T-mobile PAYG activation?
Just got myself a new T-mobile PAYG SIM-card. I am currently abroad and when I switch on my mobile phone, it wont access any network. Called T-mobile and they said my card is available for roaming and I should just "keep rebooting the phone". I asked if I shouldn't have made a call in the UK first, but the lady said "she didn't think so". She was not very knowledgeable though. Should I just wait 24 hours or will roaming only work after making a call in the UK first? Thanks

Always make sure you have coverage for where you are at www.gsmworld.com and select "Coverage Maps." |

Here is something to try, call T-Mobile Customer Services and tell them you are just having problems making a call from your phone and get them to connect you from the Call Centre. Give them a number to dial and this maybe will acitvate the SIM Card?
Hope this will help you a bit! David |
