Hello,
I can no longer send or receive text messages from my phone or buy packs.
My last 30day pack purchase was on 12/07/2020
I'm worried my number has been lost, however I have not received any messages from EE that they will remove my number. 
Any help will be very much appreciated thankyou.

Thankyou for the reply that does sound like the case
I'm a bit unsure of who to contact as i'm unable to talk over a phone at the moment. Is there a webchat or email I can use in order to reactivate my number?
