As it was switched to PAYG while you were abroad you can't now use it until you return to UK. EE PAYG SIMs need 1st activating on EE's home UK network before they can be used abroad.

@Monikazaw : Did you cancel your contract & move it to PAYG? How long did you do that before leaving UK?

Return to UK or don't use your EE SIM there. Get a local SIM.

Hi @Monikazaw

Welcome to the Community!

I hope you're having an amazing time in Thailand! @XRaySpeX is correct. You won't be able to make the switch to Pay As You Go unless you are in the UK. Is there anyone in the UK who could pick up a replacement SIM if this was sent to your account address, and then send this to you in Thailand?
