Yesterday I received a new phone (Fold8) with a new SIM card, which I immediately inserted. I registered it to my account and waited, waited, waited. I reset the phone every now and then, but nothing. Only my old S23 Ultra still works. I don't know what else to do to get it working. Secondly, this morning I logged into my account to check if there was anything wrong. What I saw: I need to pay my bill. I've been an EE customer for eight years. They're taking the money via direct debit. What's going on? It should have been taken this morning, but automatically. I paid by card because I want peace of mind. I hope I won't be charged twice. The activation is more important. Do you have any ideas?

This is great news @Milecki, as I know how important it is for you to stay connected right now!
It definitely sounds like an additional line has been added, so I'd suggest completing our online form to return the new device: How to return your EE device or accessory (within 14 days), or give our team a call when you have the chance. I'm confident everything can be sorted.
