Pause pay as you go

I’m off to USA for about 4 months and want to pause my pay as you go… how long can I keep my number without actually paying for a subscription?

Just make a chargeable action within 179 days of your last. You may need to STOP PACK if you are paying for it by Direct Card Payment.

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.
