I went to an EE store on Saturday to with my PAC code from giffgaff to move to EE. I gave the the PAC and they gave me a new sim. They said it would be ported either Monday or Tuesday and I can use the temporary number in the mean time. However today I haven't been able to use the sim as it either says no service or 3G. Even with a signal I can't send messages or call anyone.

Hello @Kit-kat.
Welcome to the community.
That's right, you should be able to use the temporary number till your number port completes.
As the request was made on a weekend it will take two working days for your number to transfer over to EE.
Could you use your SIM OK yesterday?

I could use it fine yesterday but now I can't do anything with it. I can't send message or make calls or use my data.

Thanks for confirming @Kit-kat.
If you search your area using the Network Status Checker do any known issues show?
Can you use your old SIM still?

Hi @Kit-kat.
Have you been able to check for any known issues?
Have you also tried restarting your phone?
