Phone calls not going through or being received

[Zabi2]

Everytime I try and call someone I get hit with a "you need to top up" and everytime someone calls me nothing comes in on my end. I have topped up £5 and I still have the same issue.

@Zabi2 : Where are you?

Sounds like your PAYG SIM has gone into hibernation.

When did you previously use it for a chargeable action? EE PAYG SIMs are deactivated after 6 months of non-chargeable use. You then have a further 3 months to call EE to reactivate it before it is lost completely.

You needed to make a chargeable action like making a chargeable call or text, topping up or buying a Pack or Add-on, not just using your mins, texts or data from your pack.

Thanks for the reply

What number do I need to call to put it out of hibernation?

[XRaySpeX]

The Freephone no. (Opt 1) in my sig.

[Zabi2]

My calls are unable to go through to the number, also answering your previous question I am in London.

You are using a diff. phone?

[Zabi2]

Thank you, I have now used a different phone and my number is back in service. Thanks a lot
