Roaming return UK

been away took some effort to get roaming to work on our phones. Now back in UK got texts telling us to cancel by either texting"back home" or "return from abroad" Done that but EE service is not connecting on phones or at home via 4g router

so got no phone, no text and theres no e mail adress so bloody hopeless - any ideas how to overcome this contact them.

we live miles from anywhere with no neighbours so cant even use a borrowed phone/connection this is what happenede when trying to get roaming to work so BE WARNED - you will be in limbo land.

@Dextaboy  Your phone not connecting to the 4G router is not the same issue as your phone not connecting to EEs network.     The phone to your router is WiFi not cellular data.    

Have you tried just restarting the device?  

To contact EE Customer Services dial 150 From your EE mobile or 0800 956 6000 from any other phone.
Yes restarted phone
Router is EE sim card 4g as no broadband here

Itwouldnt work at first when abroad so was told to delete all previous wi fi history - a pain as all have to be re entered !!

then select network - you need to know who it is!! then onto autoselect

thats should do it - may have got it bit wrong.

SO tried that but no joy itseeems

i tried via an  e mail addrees given to contact them -although how they are going to phone me back i dont know.

but have had text from them saying i have voicemail - BUT I HAVNT GOT A CONNECTION so cant listen to it bloody stupid!
