Sorry to hear about this and thanks for joining the discussion here Kristo34.

Thanks for all your updates here peeps!
So that we can look into this further, we'd like to continue through our Support channel as some info we can't check on any account/device specific info here on the Community.
Please submit a ticket with our team via the options available to your plan on this page. You can then let us know the ticket number (eg. #1234567).
If you have any trouble with this, please let me know and I'd be happy to help with this from my side.
coyotius, it seems that the thread your post was in was for a different connection issue via the desktop app, so I've just moved your post here.
Apologies for any confusion you may have experienced with that, but please try the above and I'll be here if you have any questions.
Keep me posted!
