Some things that can stop you getting 5G.
1: You need to be in an area than has 5G coverage. You can use the coverage checker I have provided below, and enter your postcode into it to see if it has 5G coverage.
2: If it's a really old sim only plan, as I am not sure how old yours is. I'm on a 2017/2018 sim only plan and that one doesn't provide 5G access.

Is your device a 5G device?
What phone is it ?
You say sim only subscription but is that a sim only contract or pay as you go as these are not the same ? If you text BALANCE to 150 what’s the reply message?
5G isn’t available to PAYG at present.
