EE is worst network provider best thing to do is change to a different provider when you can the Customer service is terrible no support at all and your phone number will get cancelled without you knowing even sending texts will get ur number blocked dont trust this network change while you can

Hi @Profile closed
Thanks for coming here, I'm sorry to hear your account has went into hibernation.
Did the team advise if this could be reinstated?
Leanne.

@Profile closed , from what I have read, I may get this wrong, but did you make a chargeable call or send text message at all? Just topping up does not keep your number active. You may want to take a look here:

Regular top-ups should have kept your SIM out of hibernation unless you left a 6-month gap between any.
