I have lost my old phone and ordered a new Sim but it wont let me activate it. The unlock pin comes up and i enter it and it goes back to no service straight away. Any suggestions

Hi @Tomnixonnn1.

Welcome to the community. 

Are you placing the EE SIM into a EE device/device that is unlocked to all networks?

@Tomnixonnn1  It can take up to 24hours for a SIM card to activate.   Try restarting the device a few times as this does help as the network will see that a sim is trying to connect but needs to be activated.  

To contact EE Customer Services dial 150 From your EE mobile or 0800 956 6000 from any other phone.
