I Can't use allowance on pay as you go

LadyTraci — Tue, 21 Sep 2021 06:44:45 GMT

Hi I'm on pay as you go with EE. I toppt up a few days ago. So I have 500min.. unlimited txt .. and loads of MB. It.s Evan showing on my account. But it isn.t letting me use any of it. I can only use the internet if I'm connected with a home broadband. It wonte let me send a txt . This is so annoying. I feel like leaving EE there more trouble than it.s worth. All I have done in the last 6 month is complain. It.s to much hard work. I hope someone can tell me how to sort this.

thanx..

Morning @LadyTraci

Thanks for coming back to the community 🙂

Can you text BALANCE to 150 and let me know the reply?

What happens when you try and make calls?

Speak soon 🙂

Leanne.

Hi @LadyTraci

Thanks for coming back to me.

Is this your data that is not working for you?

When was the last time you used a chargeable activity as below?

Voice and data usage. This includes making calls, sending text messages and picture messages, retrieving a voicemail, and using data that is not within your pack or add-on.
Topping up your account.
Buying a pack or an add-on.

Calls, texts and data usage made using your allowance from your pack do not count towards a chargeable activity.

Thanks 🙂

Leanne.
