This the second time having this issue

I purchased 1GB for the US. My roaming is on. It shows I picked up a service provider here (AT&T). But I have NO internet access. Last summer I had the same problem and Fizz said I need to install the latest SIM card that they will provide me. I did it last fall. Now WHAT?

sent a message on Facebook almost an hour ago. Waiting for a solution. If any…

    Hello Dragos V.,
    I am sorry for the situation encountered,
    I have verified your account and I can see that everything is in order there.
    You have bought the correct Travel add-on and you should be able to use it if you have the following:
    > Your roaming data activated;
    >  Your data activated;
    > Connected to either At&T or T-Mobile, depending on the singnal, you should switch between the 2 operators to see which one will provide you a better signal.
    And equally as important as the above, is your APN settings if you have an Android phone.
    Here are the settings you should have on the device: 
    APN: mobile.bm
    MMSC: http://mms.mobile.bm
    MMS proxy: mmsproxy.mobile.bm
    MMS port: 80
    APN type: default,mms,supl
    To find the apn settings go to: Settings → Connections → Mobile networks → Access Point Names → APN.

    If you have an apple device, make sure that you have the latest carrier settings and the latest software upgrade. 

    Also, I can see that you have contacted us in private as well.
    I kindly inform you that Facebook Messenger is not a real-time communication channel and as such, our responses may arrive with a short delay in relation to your questions.

    Scroll down and on the right hand side you will see the chat bubble.

    Furthermore, the community hub was not created to express your frustration for the service, it is a place where you come to ask for the other community users help.

    Thank you for your understanding and patience!

    Unfortunately this is unlikely to be something the forums can help with, you'll need to wait for Fizz to answer directly.

    Personally I've found in the past that I can get issues resolved more quickly by going through the website chat rather than Facebook, if you have some time in front of your computer I suggest you try contact them through the web chat.

    Good luck and I hope the issue gets resolved to your satisfaction.

    I put this message here because of my frustration with their service. Because it’s not the first time. And that other people see the quality of service. And I am on vacation with family. Not having a computer in front of me.
