I too had similar problems. I would get the SIM card without its phone number, PIN code, etc. I would have to email them to get the information. Then, once in Europe, I tried to top-up and received multiple "security issues" when doing this online in Italy. I called and emailed and was promised a 2 pound addition to my account to cover my need to call my son who we accidentally separated from. This did not happen.
I then tried for the next 4 days to top-up online, got server database error web pages every time. "Customer support" replied with "sorry, we are working on it".
Needless to say, we finally went to an FNAC store in Paris and got an Orange SIM plan and used that.
Lesson learned.
