Hello @GABBY92 

I'm afraid the number is now lost and you won't be able to get it back.  Will have been recycled.

PAYG lines are suspended after a 6month period of non-chargeable usage, and disconnected outright after a further 3months.

The credit has now been lost, and the number will have been recycled. Most websites should have alternate means of verifying you.
