How much did you pay for it? You may need to top it up if it was just a nominal amount. How was it described?

What does texting AL to 150 from your no. fully report verbatim (it is free)?

You don't need to register to MyEE in order to use a PAYG SIM.

As you paid only a nominal amount you will need to top-up. Use Fast Top Up online with a UK bank card. You don't need to login or register anything. All you need is your mobile no. & it doesn't remember your card details.

The problem is I don't have bank account in UK is there no other way to make the sim working?

You should receive the passcode.

How about doing the text AL to 150 that I asked?

You sure you've got no signal rather than it being just the PAYG SIM not working?

Are you in UK?

Are you indoors? Try outside.

Ah, that's the problem! 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.

Then why buy a UK SIM? EE is a UK company & sells its services to UK residents & those who visit the UK for a short break.
