@Vala 

Check the expiry date, as these sims have them, and if it has expired it will not be activated.

@Vala 

If you have already paid £10 it should have been activated at the till.

If it was a free sim then you need to top it up Guide How to Top Up (PAYG) 

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

@Vala 

If the sim is still valid you need to go back to Tesco.

If it is older than 6 months without a top up it will be O2 that has deactivated it so you will need to contavt O2 customer service on
