I have a prepaid sim card that Im currently not using anymore (= no active plan). I am abroad (Germany) and still have that phone number connected to 2-factor-authentication system. However when trying to use the sim card I have no reception here. Is it because I have no active plan? If thats so what would be my cheapest option just to recieve 1 message? Thank you

If the plan has been inactive for more than 60 days.  The SIM can not be reactivated.  Prepaid roaming is very hit or miss, mostly miss, but you would at least need to activate something with free incoming texts internationally, unless your device you are using supports T-Mobile’s implementation of WiFi Calling.  Have you tried logging in to your prepaid account to see if it even still exists?
