Not getting coverage inside the house because 4g appears to be disabled and 3g doesn't quite make it and most phone calls end up going to voicemail any voda reps able to help out?

@old3eyes Do VodafoneNZ offer an APN that blocks mobile coverage when you go inside your house? 😆

@CNZ Do you get 4G in any places you go or only 3G everywhere you go?

None hence only 3G. Sometime i was told they dont provision it if you dont go on a plan.

How olds the sim?

People tell me... Go buy a new sim from the local dairy, port the number over?

(others will chime in, but wouldn't that just move everything over, or involk a plan upgrade)?

Getting 4G coverage is zero related to the age of the SIM card the end user could have a 1994 BellSouth SIM and it would still work on 4G

You can't port and mobile number to a carrier you are already on
