Try manually connecting to alternate local networks. If you can receive SMS, roaming is active.

You've not said, but it sounds like you're on PAYG - do you have sufficient credit to make calls? Data requires an add-on, do you have one?

Had you used that PAYG SIM for making calls or texts in UK before going abroad? To be used abroad EE PAYG SIMs need 1st activating on EE's home UK network. If it wasn't you can't now use it until you return to UK.
