Hello, 

 

I hope you can help. I have my working phone in ee (contract) and I am abroad in Spain now. Looks like I cannot make/receive any calls, there is no service/network available and I cannot solve this issue online and even with calls because my phone number is not recognized! What can I do to activate roaming/unclock sim card? I presume this is an issue. Cannot contact anyone from EE, chat is not available - PLEASE HELP!

Hi @BBDHL

 

Thanks for coming here. 

 

If you log into your My EE account online go to Menu > Account Settings > Parental and Data Controls > Enable Roaming and also Make calls abroad from the UK > Do they sow as ticked? 

 

Speak soon 🙂
