Turn off call barring abroad

I am currently on holiday in france and before i left i purposely checked to see if i could send text messages and call before i left. Since getting here I have been unable to do either and aren't even able to contact EE. Every time i try and make a call my phone has the message 'your call barring settings dont allow you to make call to this number. Disable call barring and try calling again' displayed on it. how do you turn off call barring? my phone is a sony xperia sp. thanks 

Hi hotlips020202,
This is a strange one, can you email me your details and forum username to [email protected] and I'll take a look at your account to see if I can see anything there that may be causing this?
All the best,

  • Cannot turn off call barring

    Hi we have had call barring on our line now for a couple of weeks. We have needed to use the phone a few times before to call barred numbers, so we type in the #342*----# and we would get an automated message telling us call barring had been removed and we would proceed to make our phone call.
    The last week or so when we dial in the code to remove the barring all we hear is a tone, no automated message. and the calls are still barred when we try and dial them. Infact the tone we hear is the same as the one we hear when we try to dial a barred number. Also when we dial in the number to activate the call barring *342# we hear the tone and no automated message like we would do even if call barring was already activated. When dialling *#34# to check the status of call barring we hear the automated message telling us it is switched on not a tone.
    I have searched the forums to see if there are any similar problems but could not find one.

  • Can't turn off caller id in ios5

    How do I turn off caller ID in ios5?

    Just to make sure you didn't overlook the obvious (we all do it more often than we care to admit). Can you toggle the other services in the Sharing pane? Perhaps you just need to click on the padlock and authenticate before you can make changes.
    Second thing to try. Make sure System Preferences is not open. Look in the user's Home folder/Library/Caches. Find a cache item com.apple.preferencepanes.cache. Delete this item. Log the user out and log back in. Now open System Preferences and see if you can make the changes.
    Third thing to try. Here are the items that get changed in the /etc/cups/cupds.conf file when you turn Printer Sharing OFF---
    line 55 becomes
    ServerName 127.0.0.1
    lines 453 and 454 become
    #Port 631
    Listen 127.0.0.1:631
    line 581 becomes
    #BrowseAddress @LOCAL
    line 635 becomes
    BrowseInterval 0
    line 826 Allow From @LOCAL
    is deleted and the block from line 822 through 826 becomes
    <Location />
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny From All
    Allow From 127.0.0.1
    </Location>
    All these changes are taken from a modification of the default cupsd.conf as supplied with the version of CUPS Apple supplies with Tiger. The cupsd.conf that comes with version 1.2.x is most likely different. You will have to do some comparison and interpretation.
    Hope this helps.
    EDIT: Don't forget to recycle the cupsd whenever you make a change to the configuration file.
    sudo killall -HUP cupsd

  • Can we turn off calls, text, & data but not wifi?

    If we go to India and want to only use wifi to call with skype or similar service, can we we turn of incoming/outgoing calls & texts, as well as data on our Verizon Samsung Galaxy s5? 
    If we can, please advise simple and complete directions to turn off calls, texts, and data services while roaming  so we will not be charged for any services while still being able to use wifi, and how to reverse  that when we return to the us.
    Thank you.

  • Call forwarding on iPhone4. I am sick of trying but once I input the number and go back to call forwarding, it turns off call forwarding. Any idea why

    tried the simple way of call forwarding going in to settings>call forwarding> turn on call forwarding> enter number> return to call forwarding
    but the status is going back to 'off' from 'on'
    I also tried *61*number# but there again its failing. Can someone assist please?

    Who is your carrier? Not all carriers support enabling and disabling call forwarding using the controls in Settings.

  • I am not able to view the default view of FF 4.0, It is showing menu bar with the windows border. When i turn off menu bar, the strip which should be present above the tabs goes missing.

    I have recently downloaded FF 4.0 and using a lot of add-ons. I am not able to view the default view of FF 4.0 with no menu bar. Even after turning off the menu bar from customization, I am able to see only the tabs and FF button, but not the strip over the tabs.

    When you hide the menu bar to display the Firefox button, the titlebar (strip above the tabs) is only displayed if the Firefox window is not maximized. If you always want the Window titlebar, you can use the Firefox 4 UI Fixer extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/firefox-4-ui-fixer

  • Turning Off Address Bar Auto-Fill

    I do not want the address bar to auto fill. How do I turn it off.

    Tom .. No, I was just using google. Not http etc.
    I really think that was enough last week. We messed with some of
    the network settings lately in an attempt to set up ethernet connection
    to old machine. I bet that is what changed things.
    Yang .. I did what you said. No Joy! Thanks anyway.
    How does this work for other tiger users?
    Maybe I'm wrong about it working last week?
    Typing .com every time isn't the end of the world. But
    it would be nice if the Imac would do it.

  • Call Forwarding Icon Stays On After Call Forwarding Turned Off

    I have the problem described here: http://forums.precentral.net/palm-pre-pre-plus/271878-help-me-diagnose-glitch-call-forwarding-webos-... .
    I see the problem on my unlocked GSM Pre2 with AT&T, and it goes away when I put my sim card in my old Treo 680. The calls stopped actually forwarding when I turned off call forwarding on the Pre2.  However, the call forwarding icon comes back on the Pre 2, and even shows when I move the sim to my Treo.  It turned out that reading the call preferences from the Treo was enough to reset the icons for both phones, and the icon stayed off until the next time I forwarded calls. Maybe the Pre2 was failing to update something on the SIM to match the status on the network, but the Treo got it right?
    Anyway, I don't want to be swapping my sim card around every time I forward calls, and I can't count on my Treo to last forever either.  
    Any better ideas?

    Have you tried contacting 3 to see if your account is setup correctly or if you need a new SIM?
    You can try testing with another SIM or restoring the iPhone.

    Wifi and Data running simultaneously. Data was being charged to my account even though I was on WIFI. No one can fix the issue. I have wasted 8 hours of my life and went and returned my phone and got a new one yet after the last update I now have WIFI and Data showing that they are running simultaneously.  I have looked at numerous message boards and turned off Caller ID don't have Volte on my phone but do get an error with Visual Voice Mail. I don't want any of these services, you are not helping your customers Verizon or Samsung with forcing us to update. I tried not to update my NEW phone that I had to get from Costco because of this exact same stupid issue happen on my last one. But every time I said NO to update the next time I did anything on the phone the UPDATE would pop up again. I would say NO it would come back. I was doing a text and it came up and I hit update not wanting to and then my phone began updating on a low battery. I had to rush to put on charge and then my WIFI and Data came back on together with arrows on all going up and down. I HATE the lack of support I get from SAMSUNG and VERIZON... Verizon washes their hands and say these are not Updates even though these are the features we have on all our phones like Visual Voice Mail and Volte...

    I did look at the Settings/Cellular to check the applications.  This is one of the steps I did with the person from Verizon who was an "iPhone Specialist".  And he didn't see anything unusual.  And I can honestly tell you they have very minimal number of apps on their phones.
    When I went to the Apple Store the first time with this problem, they had me update the phones iOS systems to see if this would correct the problem.  They were each running older versions but different versions.  One son had one update to do and the other had a couple of updates needed.  So, the problem started before they were updated and they weren't even on the same update.  And nothing changed after we did the updates.
    I didn't reboot the router and modem, because I'm not having any other issues with my phone, my husband's phone, our iPad, xbox, PS3, or laptops.  Would the wifi only affect their phones?

  • Is there a way to turn off useless "Mobile data" warning?

    Whenever I turn off mobile data on my phone, I get the following message:
    Mobile Data
    You will no longer be able to use applications such as Internet, Email, and YouTube via mobile networks.  Continue? (followed by "Cancel", "OK" options).
    This comes up EVERY time.  There is no "never show this message again" check box.
    Can this be turned off? 

    What do you mean by "turning off notification bar?"  Would this mean a loss of legitimate notifications?
    Attached are images of what I'm experiencing.  The "Mobile Data" occurs EVERY time I try to turn off Mobile Data.  The "My Location" message happens EVERY time I try to turn on GPS. 
    These serve no purpose other than annoying me.  How do I get rid of these messages -- and ONLY these messages!
