International connections/roaming - Issues with no service overseas on Verizon

[S 22 Ultra]

I purchased pre paid S 22 Ultra trough Verizon 

2 weeks ago went for international trip to St Marteen and cant get any connection using my phone .Spoke with Verizon several times and get no help.They told me i need to come back to United States to make set up Global Service. After i came to US called Verizon ,set up Global service and went for trip to Poland .

I cant belive happened again ,I am in Poland now for a week, no phone service (only wifi calling)

Verizon international team its just waist time because no one from the support technician know what to do 

I opened Special Verizon support ticket ,no reponde ,my S 22 Ultra still not working 

I never have this problem while using Galaxy Note 1p

Whats wrong with this Samsung??

I just landed in Brazil and have the same issue with my S22+.  Which I would have known before I left as I would have grabbed my Note 8 and used that instead!

I am a very unhappy customer,

Great, let us know the results

I had the same problem. My S22+ wouldn't work in Sint Maarten or St Barth for more than 30 seconds. The Verizon representative was not able to fix the problem. Unfortunately, because it's a company phone, I can't try the trick of swapping out the SIM card.

I hope this gets fixed soon. I'm supposed to travel to Germany in May.

Chiming in - same problem, Verizon was no help.  

Verizon tech (2nd tier) finally settled on telling me to get a local SIM card - but of course wouldn't unlock the phone so I could use it.  Ultimate answer was to go rent a local phone... absolutely useless. 

Refused to even acknowledge other people had the same problem.

Problems with S22 Ultra, purchased Feb 2022 from Verizon - roaming in UK and Switzerland (neither worked).  Had the same experience, where a manual connection could last for a few seconds and disconnect.

So my new white SIM Card arrived, activated in Verizon.com.... and it worked!

Thank you noelh007. Samsung and Verizon owe you some money for sure.

• Usa traveling to aruba issue. After dealing with his same issue. I FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT. I was on the phone with Verizon for hours. They tried everything. Nothing theybdis worked. I finally decided it was the sim card. I was in aruba and service didn't work at all besides wifi calling. My family member was traveling down 2 days later so I asking him to go to Verizon and get a replacement sim card.  I gave him all my phone information and he was able to get a new sim card programed for my phone back in the states. When he arrived I put the new sim card in and it worked immediately.  Such a pain in the a** but this did resolve the issue. They must of had a bad batch of sim cards ?

Same issue. American S22+ traveling in the UK. Phone won't auto-connect to any local network. I can manually connect to Vodafone and one other, but it drops the connection after thirty seconds. Sadly don't have a spare SIM card, and only here for the weekend. Will be sure to save my old S20+ 5G card for travel use.

Exact same issue with me in France.

I just had exactly the same problem in France.   I have the Galaxy S22 on Verizon.    I had the roaming set and I couldn't hold a connection to a French network.   I called Verizon support and they couldn't help.    I used to have this problem but would call support and they would enable something and then it worked across my old Samsungs and Blackberries

I'm glad it worked for you also, it's so frustrating
