Hello,

I just opened a new account on EE and was willing to buy a new sim card as I will visiting the UK for a whole month in a week.

I could not find an option to buy a new number and sim online.

Are you looking to have a PAYG phone, or a pay-monthly contract?

I am looking for a pay monthly sim only contract, I will be using an internation visa and I want it to be delivered to my friends flat in London.

EE's SIM-only plans are all shown on https://shop.ee.co.uk/sim-only from where you can also purchase your chosen plan for delivery,

@FADIAlHALABI  If your only coming to the UK for a month you only want a PAYG sim.   A sim only contract will see you at minimum tied in to a 12 month contract.  If you get a 30 day rolling contract you’ll still need to give notice to terminate.    More importantly you’ll probably not pass the credit check to even get a contract.  

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

As you're only here for a month all you need is a Pay As You Go SIM with a 30-day pack of allowances.

Hi @Mutetse

Thanks for coming here. 

Are you looking at purchasing a pay as you go or pay monthly SIM? 

Leanne 🙂

I am an NHS/Blue card holder and wanted a discounted (with voucher code) sim contract.

Hi @Mutetse

You would need to register for a perk account and get the discount code from there, have you done this? 

Leanne.
