Unable to link my new PAYG sim to account

Hi, I ordered a PAYG sim £10 for 8G pack and received today.

When I try to link that to the EE account, it shows below error. 

Please let me know how to resolve it?

And also when I plug in the sim to the phone, it said I don't have any create to make call. But I had already paid £10 when I order the £10 pack? I called the 150 hotline few times today but it is very difficult to get someone connected..... wait too long without anyone answer.

What does texting AL to 150 from your no. fully report verbatim (it is free)?

It said £0 balance. But I paid £10 pack when I make the order online? So why?

Yes, but what else does it say, in full?

Your current balance as of today XX:XX is £0.00. For more info on your packs, add-ons or free boosts, go to the My EE app or ee.co.uk/MyEE

 

Then when I login to my EE app or ee.co.uk/MyEE, I cannot link the new numbers to it. So it is a dead loop? lol.

You have no pack yet. When did you buy this SIM? It might take 24 hours to appear.
