i have paid for an add on. I called EE a number of times before travelling to ensure that it was up and running. I land in Spain and my phone will not work. This has caused quite to inconvenience with being able to book my airport transport and open my hotel booking information . Please can this be resolved ASAP I have now been 2 days without a phone .

@RhysJones1 : What add-on?

To use your phone on foreign networks needs roaming enabled, choosing a billing add-on doesn't do this.
If you're on pay-monthly, this is usually done by texting ROAMING to 150 before leaving the UK. If you didn't do this, your only recourse now is to contact EE-CS by another means, to enable roaming.

Good morning @RhysJones1.
Do you connect to a local network?
Since landing in Spain have you tried restarting your phone?

Have you tried manually searching for an available network, @RhysJones1? Does your phone have a signal at all?

OK, thanks @RhysJones1. I recommend speaking to our Mobile Care team. I know it can be a little more difficult to do so when you're abroad, but I know of others in the community using a VoIP service, such as Skype, to call.
Let us know how you get on.
