how much data left on a mobile data SIM in a remote location?

Is there a way that I can see how much data allowance I have left on a mobile data SIM that is in a location remote from where I am located? The SIM is in a 4G router in an unoccupied caravan (so that I can monitor Tapo devices in the caravan remotely). The SIM came with a 365 day/120GB allowance. http://add-on.ee.co.uk/status does not work in this situation of course, as I not on the wifi network of the 4G router.

Look at the MyEE a/c for it.

Trouble is, when I try to register the device on myEE, it sends a verification passcode to the device, and I am not with the device

Then you're stuffed. You need to be at the device to find out its data status or to register it.

When you're next with the device you could configure it to forward any texts to your mobile. That would be chargeable & so it would need to have some PAYG credit.
