Here's a good one.
I've brought my personal UK Vodafone mobile (a Nokia 6310i) over to Washington DC and am unable to MAKE calls. I'm registered on Vodafone's preferred partner network, Cingular. I can receive calls as well as send and receive texts, but when I make calls (using the +44 code and the UK number, without the zero) I get the dreaded triple tone.
The other network I can see is T-Mobile and I have the same problem on that.
I have a business mobile with me - a Nokia 6230 on 02 - and that works fine on Cingular and T-Mobile. I've swapped the SIM cards between phones and the problem follows the SIMs.
I spoke to Vodafone in the UK yesterday and they could see that my phone was registered on Cingular and all they could think of was that the network was busy. Hardly likely as my O2 phone works fine here on the same network. Vodafone say there is no barring on my phone.
Incidentally I've also tried inserting the 011 international access code from the US, instead of the +, but that makes no difference either.
Any ideas?? Both Vodafone and I are stumped! I've travelled around Europe and Scandinavia many times and have never previously encountered this problem.
