I had to switch to a SIM for my broadband when I moved to get a decent signal but I cannot link it to my account. I first setup the account prior to moving both my wife and I from smarty to EE, I needed to use a PAYG SIM until I sorted my mobile broadband up.
Every time I try to link any of the numbers in the EE app, it says it can't do it and I need to ring 150 or go into a shop. The problem I have is that I have autism and calls and face to face stuff is ridiculously hard for me. Is there any way to live chat with someone instead?
Solved! See the answer below or view the solution in context.

So, where does the PAYG SIM you mentioned in your OP come into it? Are you trying to link contract SIMs to an EE a/c that already has a PAYG SIM linked to it? Or v.v.? You can't! They don't mix. You need to create a separate EE a/c with its own email addy.

There is no Live Chat on PAYG.
You are trying to link the mobile no. of the mobile router's SIM?

Both the SIM in the router and the one in my phone which are both billed monthly contracts

Then as long as you are on a mobile contract, Live Chat will be found under the Help section of the MyEE app as "Talk to us".

Great, thanks. I couldn't see it but I think that's because I'm usually at work when it's open.

This is the answer, yes the account has a PAYG SIM on it already so I'll have to create a new one. Thanks
