A method for configuring a connection between a User Equipment, UE, and a 3rd Generation Partnership Project, 3GPP, compliant mobile communications network at the UE. The method comprises checking a service equivalency indicator, the service equivalency indicator indicating zero or more mobile communications networks the UE is permitted to transmit a new request for a PDN connection corresponding to a previously rejected request for a PDN connection. If the service equivalency indicator indicates that there is at least one mobile communications network including the mobile communications network to which the UE is currently attached for which it is permitted to transmit a request for a PDN connection corresponding to a previously rejected request for a PDN connection, and a new PDN connection corresponding to a previously rejected request for a PDN connection is required, the method further comprises transmitting a new request for a PDN connection, the new request corresponding to a previously rejected request for a PDN connection.
