Hello anyone. I have an EE account and have (had) a phone number associated on PAYG but have been abroad 3 months. Used company phone and not bothered with this one. Now its deactivated. Boo hoo!
I had some credit on it.

Sounds like it has gone into hibernation.
When did you last use it for a chargeable action? EE PAYG SIMs are deactivated after 6 months of non-use. You then have a further 3 months to call EE to reactivate it before it is lost completely.
You needed 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.
