Different SIM

JA01
Visitor

I’m travelling to a remote location where I will need to use a local SIM. Will my phone accept this or does EE need to enable its use?

I’m currently on a pay monthly contract.

It will probably need unlocking from EE. Is it an iPhone?

 

Where did you yourself get this device itself originally? Did you buy it yourself new direct from EE or from a 3rd-party reseller or is it 2nd-hand? The unlocking process & costs are different. How old is it? EE won't unlock contract devices less than 6 months old.
