Why Your Connect+ Call May Not Connect

Learn why your Connect+ call may not connect, including SIM mismatch or hidden Caller ID issues, and how to fix it quickly.

Updated today

If your Connect+ call does not connect, it is usually because:

  • Your SIM card does not match your Talk360 account number, or

  • Your Caller ID is hidden.

Connect+ requires your number to match your account and be visible before the call can proceed.

No Talk360 credits are deducted if the call fails for these reasons.

1️⃣ SIM Mismatch / Number Not Recognized

What You May Hear

“We can’t connect this call because your phone number does not match your Talk360 account. Please place the call using the phone number registered with Talk360 and try again.”

Why This Happens

Connect+ verifies that the phone number on your active SIM matches the number registered with your Talk360 account.

The call will not connect if:

  • The SIM card in your phone does not match your Talk360 account number

  • You are using a dual-SIM device and the wrong SIM is active

  • You switched SIM cards

  • You are using another device

  • You are logged in with a different number

This prevents incorrect routing and protects your account.

What Happens

  • The call will not proceed

  • No Talk360 credits are deducted

How to Fix It

  • Make sure the active SIM matches your Talk360 account number

  • If using dual SIM, select the correct SIM

  • Log in using the correct registered phone number

2️⃣ Caller ID Disabled (Number Hidden)

What You May Hear

“Your number is currently hidden. Please enable Caller ID in your phone settings and try the call again.”

Why This Happens

Connect+ requires your phone number to be visible.

If Caller ID is hidden or disabled:

  • The system cannot verify your number

  • The call cannot proceed

What Happens

  • The call does not connect

  • No Talk360 credits are deducted

How to Fix It

  • Open your phone settings

  • Enable Caller ID

  • Make sure your number is visible before placing the call

Alternative: Use Talk360 Internet Calling

If you prefer not to adjust your SIM or Caller ID settings, you can:

  • Disable Connect+ in the app

  • Place the call using Wi-Fi or mobile data instead

Important to Know

These checks are specific to Connect+ and do not apply to regular internet-based calls.

If you prefer, you can switch to a Wi-Fi or mobile data call instead.
