“If you’re thinking of going to EE ,run the other way Service is terrible and heaven forbid your apartment is in a dead zone they wont do a thing They changed my phone but still no joy and even lied in his report”
“Following a simple request to upgrade my data, waited 27 minutes on hold...UNACCEPTABLE (and this isn't the first time this sort of shenanigans has happened). Next contract will be elsewhere.”
“We have been loyal customers for over 13 years. One recurring issue (which EE has text us to confirm they have a line issue in our area). Called customer services and was not handled professionally, asked to speak to a manager and was also very rude. Well good bye EE if that’s how you treat your loyal customers who have had better deals but stuck with you! We will not be renewing our x4 lines at £250+ PM”
“Have been with EE for 3.5 years, paying £20/month for 2 sims. On Jul 2019 decided to try to get some offer for loyalty customers, the one on the phone agreed to increase data allowance from 5G to 20G for the same price (£20/month). Right after the offer, one of the sim was removed from the EE network, had to call EE service and they said that was an mistake from EE. Got the two numbers working again. Next few months' bills increased to £32. Called EE several times, got so many promises to call back but finally I had to call them and what I could have is an offer from EE to cut £5 from £32 bill, end up paying £27 after PROMOTION for loyalty customers? Will end all contracts (6 from my family) with EE when they end! Had thought to switch my Broadband from Virgin to EE, but will never do it.”
“I have been an EE customer for over 15 years, from before when they re-named themselves as EE. This is the first time that they have so UTTERLY mismanaged my upgrade and contract renewal that I should have just left the company all together.
Not only did they try to deliver my new phone to the wrong address, they then had to cancel and "re-build" the new contract to be able to send the phone to the right address a day later. And on top of that, it will be without the set-up ("Enjoy" - oh the irony of that name) support. I lost A LOT of time sorting even this out.
Finally when asked what they will do to compensate for all the mismanagement they simply replied "We apologize we can't do anything". A company that is quickly going "out of date".”
“Terrible Rip-Off company!
Terrible Rip-Off company!
I have a monthly paid mobile account which I pay £45 on average every month for 13 Gig of internet, which is already an horrible deal! Then I purchased a 4G wifi device with £30 credit for 20 giga Internet, but it did not last for more than a week, and when I called them to talk one of their staff told me she could give me extra 5 giga data, as she sees that I spend a lot with them, but I could speak to her manager and he would likely be able to offer me more. When she passed the call to him, he offered me a monthly plan and I told him I was interested in cable internet, and he said would transfer me to the correct team, and if I close a deal he would be likely to offer me some compensation internet until the cable one was installed. Then when I told him I didnt want, as I was going for another company he took it off all the other offers (even the 5 giga previously offered by his colleague), and only ended up giving me this same 5 giga back after I argued him, and only to honour his colleague offer, as "data is an expensive commodity" (for your company 5x more than the others probably). This is a disgrace and against the law, as he was trying to do something for me only subject to me buying his product. The name of this manager is Adam (he refused to provide me with his surname) and he gave a ref number which is 11798087 and the call was on the 23rd Oct 2019 at around 3.20pm.”
“I received a deal by text from EE offering 25% off my contract if I updated my phone a month early. When I visited the EE shop to do this I was told I should never have received the text .
I did feel sorry for the sales person who had talked me through the best phone and deal but I left the shop and will be looking elsewhere.”
“EE is the best network, don't make me trow up. They have stolen lied cheated me out of £990.00 and it was legal. they gave me a very attractive deal at first £34.00 a month but they will take £54 from my account, Guess what i never saw a penny. then after finding (after suffering with their limited coverage because you get what you pay for ) i was not going to see a penny back, i called them to cancel my contract. 2 months before 24 month contract was going to be up, i was tired of being cheated. so i was happy to pay penalty just to be with EE. they told me that i would get a pin if i want to keep my number i would have 30 days to decide i said ok still cancel my contract. they told me my last bill will be in November 2018. i said great thank and good riddance. 09-10-2019 i checked my bank account online only to see EE has been stealing money from my account for 11 months. i rang them again to find out that are right to go into my bank account and take my money for a phone that has not been in use for 11 months. spoke to team leader that has offed me £167.00.”
“Since taking over Orange & T-Mobile, signal has been worse, service not much help & deals rubbish! Not surprising with finances so tight people scrapping the monthly contract for 24 months & going sim only. Complete ripoff.”
“I cannot make it recieve or make calls or texts from my phone. Every time I ring EE , they have standard answer , there us problem in your area, we are repairing, four days for repairs 😊😊. This the work network , I have experienced.”
“Upgrade my line last night with EE found out this morning that my line has been downgraded and my add on have not been included in the new prices. Called them back this morning and was told they will not add them on guess it's time to move my three lines to another network. been a customer for several years now NO CUSTOMER LOYALTY”
“The worst customer service out of any sales person I have ever dealt with. They are only interested in financial gain and did not resolve to fix the issues I had with their network, which is by far the worst I have experienced.”
“If you are intending on going abroad do not use these , had a massive bill , but no bill at all for 2 phones on 02 , rubbish just cancel my contract , plus will be 37 in work after this 👍🏼”
“I will start by saying: I never thought it is possible for this to happen in 2019 unless you are somewhere in North Korea or something.
I went into the EE Store on Friday 13th September to get a Sim Card deal that I saw on their website, £20 for 20 GB of Data. It was really Friday 13th. As I got in, I was welcomed by sales advisor Nahima in the Bull Ring store in Birmingham. I specifically mentioned the deal that I saw on their website at which point she very confidently confirmed that they have that offer in store and that I can get corporate discount on it as my partner has the corporate discount perk. The discount of 20% on a £20 simcard is £16, moving on. As Nahima was looking to start the contract, she suggested the following: “Btw, I can do a better deal” she said. If you take the one sim card with 20GB for £20 I can offer you on your second number that you bring in a multiline discount of 10% and double data offering on a 25GB for £20 Sim plan. I had some thinking for 1 minute and although I do not use more than 25GB I accepted as it made sense still. She then filled the name, card details and pac codes on the contract, nothing else, asked me to sign, explained me that although it says £22 pounds there on the contract, on my account will reflect what we discussed. I then signed and asked: “So when will the number ports happen?”. She said on the 17th September, which was just 1 working day later. I was happy with that.
THE NIGHTMARE STARTED WITH THE WORST MOB ORGANISATION IN THE UK 2019
I noticed on Friday night on my account that nothing has been applied from what Nahima said, I then called customer services, they said nothing has been applied and I will need to take it in the store, I spoke with 2 agents. I was like: “Ok I can take this will billing after”.
Monday came, I called to verify my number ports. My number was due to port on Tuesday 17th, however my wife’s number was on the 14 Oct. I asked why, I was told to just make a call from that provisional number and that the date will be moved as it is an ofcom regulation now that people don’t know about it. I did, he actually confirmed that the date has now moved on the 18th. I called on the 17th, they said it’s still 14 October. I then got super frustrated of the fact that I had to spend 4 hours on the phone between Friday and Monday speaking with at least 5 agents, trying to cancel it, cancel number port, tried to get the discounts applied, tried everything possible and instead I was only lied and misinformed as they are all incompetents and have no clue what they are doing. I then tried to cancel it again on Tuesday or cancel the number port on my wife’s number to at least save her simcard from this demonic company and again I got hit with: “you need to speak with the store, the store needs to get this sorted for you” or “The number port is locked, we can’t do it”
I then of course went to the store on Tuesday: The Assistant manager there Haroon immediately blamed customer services for giving me misinformation and says that I should’ve come to the store. Initially I showed him on the contract where it said £22 for the Sim Card of 20GB and he said they don’t even have that plan and it should’ve been £20. I then said that regardless of what he can do, after all that happened, I just want to cancel the cards. He made me wait for 20 minutes while he supposedly read the notes from customer service although I clearly explained him that I don’t care what anyone said, I was mis-sold, and I need to cancel my simcard. He then explained me and my wife that just arrived there that I wasn’t mis-sold, all of the sudden that £22 plan was not meant to be £20 and although it says £22, on my account and on the bill will be £20 + the corporate discount, I kept showing him that in my account the price was still £20 and that the corporate discount nor the double data from 25GB to 50GB was not applied. He then continuously defended his incompetent colleague that was as incompetent as him and the commission won from this mis-sale. I was basically humiliated, called a liar, I was trying to explain, and I was asked to calm down as they will call security. This all happened in the eyes of a supposedly “store manager” that sat there and only looked. That is probably because her training and customer service reflected in the exact way as for her employees. In the end he said he can’t cancel my sim card even if by LAW you have a 14 days cloaking period.
The outcome: I sat in the night with someone on the phone for another 1 hour and 20 minutes and said he can cancel my contract and that I will need to wait 24 hours in order for the port on my number to be completed and he can request a PAC code. He then made me pay £40 which was the first bill apparently and said that it will be the last bill. He then said, no actually he promised that he will call me at 9 am the next day to give me the pac code and cancel the other sim card…..Guess what? Yep, never happened. Outrageous.
I AM OUT OF ENERGY: The end
Conclusion: DO NOT GET EVEN 1M close TO THE STORE IN BULLRING and STAY AWAY FROM THIS CLASSIC MOB ORGANISATION or pray things will go smooth. In the history of ordering services, I never seen anything like it. If they do release me of my contract, it was still a £40 adventure of calling and speaking with at least 7-8 reps that only misinformed me.”

“My mother had a pay as you go sim - being used only very infrequently, she had topped it up £20 around 3 years ago, had tried to use it several times but seemed unable to, although I could call her on it (which was fine) I rang her a few days ago and it appears they have given her number to someone else as it had not been used in the last 6 months - not even prepared to refund her credit! Won't be using them again!!”
“We have been ee customers for a long time both broadband and mobile but we recently moved to Cornwall and waited for ee to connect us up for three months and all they gave us in compensation was one free month OMG can you believe it ? I will definitely leaving them both broadband and mobile which I have three contracts !! So very disappointing.”
