Hello @balviccan ,

Welcome to the community,

Sorry that your wife has dementia, must be a difficult time for you.

Is it for a contract or pay as you go sim card?

If pay as you go, you can just wait until it is automatically cancelled for non use, or you can ring customer service to get this cancelled.

If on monthly contract, you would have to ring customer service giving 30 days notice.

To contact EE customer service dial 150 from your mobile phone or ring customer service for free using web based app or another phone: +44 800 079 8586 or +44 800 956 6000.

Hi @balviccan 

Welcome to the community. I'm really sorry to hear of your wife's diagnosis.

Just adding a little bit to @Schockwave's great reply - If it's a contract, there are some instructions you can follow under the 'ill health' section of this Changing an account in the case of a life event help page.

Please let us know how you get on.

Shockwave's was the most helpful. I used 150 but surprised the issue was not covered under "Help"
