Questions about a new SIM I've just ordered

KingMouse — Sun, 09 May 2021 17:16:09 GMT

Hi,

I'm a PAYG customer and I've just bought a new phone via a third party. This phone takes a nano SIM and I only have one of the ancient, large SIMs dating back a decade or two.

I logged into My EE and ordered a new SIM but it didn't ask me if I wanted a new number or keep my old one. I would much prefer to keep this number so will I receive a SIM with my current number or a new one?

As a PAYG customer EE don't have my home address but the order form didn't ask me to say where I live. How can I add an address?

The order form didn't ask for payment details just said the cost would be taken from my next bill but I don't get a bill and I wasn't asked for payment details. WIll the cost be removed the next time I top up?

Yours in thorough confusion,

Did you order from your Account Settings / Replace your SIM of your MyEE?

That will get you a replacement SIM with the same no., plan & credit.

It asks me for my delivery address. Did it say "Order Physical SIM"?

The cost of £1.50 will be deducted from your PAYG credit when the SIM is dispatched. So you need it to be at least that now.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes.

Excellent, that's good to hear 🙂

Did it say "Order Physical SIM"?

Yes, I ordered a physical SIM.

It asks me for my delivery address

It didn't ask me... Unless I clicked through too fast but surely I wouldn't be able to do that if no address is known to EE. If I have entered my address in the past where can I check and change it if necessary?

When you clicked on "Order Physical SIM" it should've come up with a "Account holder details" page asking for Personal details & Delivery address.

After I last posted I received a text from 150 saying there was a problem with my order from 150 so I rang customer services.

Because I started with T Mobile, then Orange and finally EE I need a new EE SIM with a new number but they will transfer the current number to the new SIM when I receive it if I call them again using the new SIM

Apparently at some time in the past I had given EE my address but it has since changed.

Thank you very much for your help :)..
