@Vikvik777 To be able to use that sim you need to pay the roaming charges for it in order to use it outside the UK if you are using packs. See HERE You also need EEs APN setting on your device to connect to the internet and your credit on the account if you are not using packs doesn’t go towards data you need a data add on to use that sim outside the UK. EE sims are not for none UK residents and are not away to get cheaper calls because it might be cheaper that local network for that country residence, EE PAYG users now have to pay to roam.

Thanks for providing screenshots @Vikvik777.
I have not approved these as it contains your mobile number and personal details.
Have you tried using your phone whilst on main land?

Hi @Vikvik777,
Welcome to the EE Community. 🙂
To activate the SIM, it must be used to make a call or send a text on the EE network in the UK. Do you know if your friend did this?

Thanks for getting back to me @Vikvik777.
I believe you are onboard a boat at the moment is that right?
Have you tried using your SIM when off the boat?
