EE 4G mobile PAYG WiFi router

Artivati — Tue, 10 Dec 2024 12:40:54 GMT

Hello.

I have an EE 4G mobile PAYG WiFi router (the sort with removable SIM card) that is about to run out of its current credit bought almost 30 days ago.
As I won't be using it for a few months I'm planning not to top-up with any new credit until it's again required, which could be anything between two to three months.
My question is...

Will I have to top-up with credit within a certain period before the current SIM card (and number) becomes redundant or are deactivated?

Many thanks for any assistance.

@Artivati : EE PAYG SIMs are deactivated after 6 months of non-chargeable use. You then have a further 3 months period of grace to call EE to reactivate it before it is lost completely.

You need to make a chargeable action like making a chargeable call or text, topping up or buying a Pack or Add-on, not just using your mins, texts or data from your pack.
