    **bleep** marvellous £10 a month no SIM no service. We need account details ! Ha ha ha. 8f had such information I would not need the help. Support team are so hands off.

    I feel like I'm my own customer service. Go to dashboard! . I fu. Don't have a dash board

    It does not have the ability to do anything.

    Smarty are the best SIM service as long as all goes well but when things go well but any anomaly you screwed. But when it  is  going off the rail, your on your own.

    DONT  BUY SIM from smarts. I was a customer for yes 10/10

    But if you have a issue your stone walled.

    Giff Gaff is easy and cheap.  I tried to get back to smarty still. But bott help turns you into wife beater with frustration.

    Best of luck🐻

    Smarty don't allow you to pay by direct debit, so are you sure these payments actually have anything to do with Smarty?

    If they are not direct debit payments but recurring card payments, and they are actually for Smarty, it sounds like you did indeed activate your SIM, you just didn't realise it. Didn't you get an email from Smarty each month confirming that your plan had renewed?
