Hello @GAE55 ,

Welcome to the community,

Well done for hanging up, as the SIM card will not be blocked, that is absolute rubbish and as EE only have customer support in the §uk, that is definitely a scam, thank you for the warning, as some customers may get taking in by that, plenty of scammers about.

To contact EE customer service dial 150 from your mobile phone or ring customer service for free using Skype or another phone: +44 800 079 8586 or +44 800 956 6000.
