@anya6
When you activate as Pay as you go, you have to make your first call in the UK before you go abroad to unlock it for roaming services.
If you did not make a call in the UK while you were on Payg you'll need to wait until you are connected to EE in the UK again before you can make it work for future travel.

Hi @anya6.
Welcome to the community.
Did the amount of £10 leave your bank account?
If you text BALANCE to 150 what reports back?

Hi @anya6.
What reports if you text BALANCE to 150? this is a free text service.
If you are unable to send the text please could you confirm when the last time you topped up or made any chargeable action with this SIM?

Thanks for explaining @anya6
Were you already in Poland when you moved from the contract to pay as you go, or did you use the SIM on pay as you go in the UK first?
