New SIM card needed for 5G?

[Andy1905]

Hi 

My current monthly pack which I started and got the SIM card for in December 2021 is a £15 25gb pack.

I was using an iPhone 11 until a few days ago when I got a 16 pro. I have noticed that I am not on 5g at any time, do I need to change SIM card or change plan. I am living in the centre of Birmingham so I think there should be 5g coverage 

thanks

@Andy1905  5G isn’t available to PAYG customers.

All EE SIMs are capable of providing 2G, 4G & 5G service. Which specific plan are you on?

Thanks for your reply. It is a £15 pay as you go subscription pack

Thanks for your reply. That’s what I thought however have seen mixed answers online so want to confirm
