No roaming arrangement for O2 in Philipines, @Mel13 - https://www.o2.co.uk/international/using-your-phone-abroad - you may have used up any balance you had remaining if you have been making calls/using data.
Check to see if you can get a local SIM for use while you are there for Data - you can then use Whatsapp or similar for calls if needed. Your UK number will not work while you have "No Service".
Good luck, @Mel13.

You can roam in the Philippines on PAYG but it costs a small fortune..
What network are you trying to roam on, is it Smart PH or Globe or Sun? As the only that worked for me is Smart

Thanks, @madasaf1sh - probably should've included "cost-effective" in my response 🙄🤣
