No service

I am unable to send messages or make any calls.  I can get on to wifi and browse the internet but it does allow me to send messages or calls on whatsapp.  I have switched on and off several times. Turned airplane mode on and off.  Can anyone else help? Thanks

FYI you have a short time after posting to edit your reply. Does your phone show network coverage?

Use the "check service status" option on https://ee.co.uk/help/mobile-coverage-checker  in the first instance, to check for local service outages. The "report a problem" link should be used if no issues are reported but EE users continue to have issues.A loss of coverage will remove the ability to make/receive calls, send/receive texts or use mobile data.

If you're in the UK and have a WiFi connection, you can use WiFi-calling to keep using your phone as normal without needing network coverage.

@Jenny1231 , WhatsApp is an internet based app, so when no cellular, you can use it, not the same as making calls and texting which uses cellular, but as @bristolian , has already written, by having wifi, you can use wifi calling to make calls and text.

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.
