Help Not registered on network Vodafone

Wobblybox

Lurker
I have a note 8 and am plagued with 'not registered on network' messages. I can't use the phone for calls or texts (not sure about WhatsApp but Internet works). It's happening daily and takes maybe 10 minutes faffing about to get back on network. My partner is also Vodafone and getting the same message but not as often (she has a S7 edge). I turned the lte option off earlier today and it hasn't happened since so I'm wondering if it is something to do with transferring from 3 to 4g....? I rang Vodafone who advised they have no network issues in my area (the fault happens at home, work and elsewhere) it's a bit of a mission to get it back on with messages like 'cannot change network' while data transfer in place and such like. It happens most often when I terminate a call try to make another call straight away. Anyone else having thus problem? Is it a handset or network problem?

I've been on to Vodafone 4 times now, I've got a new sim and have been given a number of things to do (all done with no change). You could be right though... I took a contract out with an S8 plus and changed to a note 8. I sold the S8 and bought the Note 8 sim free. Surely I'm not the only person who has changed their phone mid contract. Any suggestions on how to set up the account properly?
 
I've had this problem on two phones and both were from Samsung. This doesn't seem to happen on my other phones though. When it happens, I just reboot the Samsung phone and it goes away, I don't know whats wrong with whom (Samsung/Vodafone)?
I haven't tried if it works fine on other carriers...
