@c931 , EE only sell them on contract, so if you only want to have a sim only contract, you will have to get the phone elsewhere, like Apple, which you can pay off monthly.
If you got the phone from EE, you would get an upgraded contract on 5G, best to speak to customer service, as they may be able to offer a better deal than on their website. Hope this helps.
To contact EE customer service dial 150 from your mobile phone or ring customer service for free using Skype or another phone: +44 800 079 8586 or +44 800 956 6000.
