international service just stopped working
Hi there! I have an international plan and my international plan just stopped working today. No service at all , even when back in a service area. Same thing happened to my mom who was on Verizon. Tried calling Tech Support but was on hold for more than 40 mins with no response . Any way anyone can assist ?
It has been in a couple different countries for me.
Hey there. Just checking in to see if everything is working again.

A data eSIM combined with Google Voice is a good backup plan.

Download the app. It walks you through it. Don't need to be tech savvy. Just need to have an unlocked phone.

No international roaming available for US customers (Verizon, ATT, TMo) due to a massive outage.
https://www.cnn.com/2024/06/27/business/att-verizon-tmobile-mobile-outage-international/index.htmlSame for us in Paris - no service today. We have iphones. We ended up buying a cheap Android with a European Sim card. Our iphones don't take physical Sim cards and we could not figure out how to add an eSim - so if you have an Android with a sim card slot, just pick up a new sim card at a cell phone shop - only $20 - if in Paris, we went to The Phone Shop at Gare Montparnasse. Otherwise might be worth it to you to buy a cheap android and get the sim card - we dropped about $200 for an android and sim card but at least we are up and running….
Same here in Serbia - suddenly lost international roaming signal at around 6PM local time.
Same in France. I've had 0 bars of service as-of midday Thurs since Weds about 6 pm. On Reddit, seeing multiple threads about intl roaming outages across multiple carriers. Some say they were told yesterday that it would be resolved within 24hrs but that sounds vague enough to mean "we don't know yet"
No issues with my service currently roaming in Canada.
