Going from contract to Pay as you go

Hi everyone. Recently I moved abroad. Before I go I cancelled my contract which normally ends in August. I chatted wit a EE guy and told him I want to keep my number as PAYGO. When I login to my account I can't see my mobile number or anything related to it. I still use the sim card and receive messages. What should I do?

You need to call CS to delete your old contract MyEE a/c & then you can set up your new PAYG MyEE a/c afresh, using the same mobile no. & email addy if desired. You can't mix them under MyEE.

When was your SIM moved to PAYG? It takes 30 days notice to cancel a contract & before it is moved to PAYG. Had that change taken place while abroad you can't now use it at all while abroad. To be used abroad EE PAYG SIMs need 1st activating on EE's home UK network. If it wasn't you can't now use it until you return to UK.
