What have you bought & from whom? You can't have bought a contract from EE in Spain. So have you bought a PAYG phone with an EE SIM in it?

EE PAYG SIMs need 1st activating on EE's home UK network before they can be used abroad. If it wasn't you can't now use it until you return to UK.

What is an "Open SIM"?

@XRaySpeX , just looked it up and Open Sim is an Open Simulator:

I don't see what that has to with what phone the OP has, as I asked. Would one write SIM in caps if that were the case?

@XRaySpeX , I was just answering to your question about Open Sim, which I looked up, so wondering whether it had something to do with it having an Open Sim, I have read all the threads before replying, by the way.

Never heard of Open Sim either before.
