Roam abroad pass not working in Egypt

[Jcjack]

I brought the roam abroad pass as I was travelling to Egypt and thought this would be the best way to use my phone abroad. I'm now here and can't connect to use my data or call and text. Roaming is on in my phone. Iv tried restarting my phone but still no luck in using my data.

@Jcjack : The Roam Abroad Pass is not valid in Egypt. That's 1 thing but not the most important!

Did you activate roaming on your EE a/c before you left UK by texting ROAMING to 150? Having a roaming billing add-on doesn't of itself activate roaming on your a/c.

Often just rebooting the phone is the simple remedy. Also try selecting a network manually rather than auto. Otherwise you need to call CS to get your roaming activated. Try calling CS on the Freephone no. in my sig. on Skype over WiFi. It should be free.
