Thanks for your reply @mehdi800404
We don't have account access here on the forum, but if this is a pay as you go SIM, it sounds like it may have went into hibernation. You can read more about that here What is pay as you go and flex hibernation, and how do I stop it? - The EE Community
If this sounds likely, the only option would be to speak to our team over the phone to see if it can be reactivated.

Hi @mehdi800404
Welcome to our community.
We don't want you to be stressed by this, what is it you are trying to do exactly? Have you been using your SIM since you got it 6 months ago?

Sounds like your PAYG SIM may have gone into hibernation due to non-use.
When did you previously make a chargeable action? EE PAYG SIMs are deactivated after 6 months of non-chargeable use. You then have a further 3 months period of grace 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.
