    I am writing this as a balancing exercise, reviews are often biased towards negatives as those experiencing poor service feel the need to share their issues whereas those experiencing a quality service just take it for granted (the service is just as it should be) and make no comment.
    My own personal experience of EE has been good speeds and very reliable.
    Customer service though rarely used has been prompt and efficient.
    A recent fault resulted in crackling on the phone and seriously reduced broadband speed.
    This was correctly identified as a fault on the local loop and passed by EE to Openreach for a home visit.
    It was resolved in a few days, the fault being located as a bad joint on the outside of the house where the underground service cable had been extended to continue to the master socket.
    The only other issue I have had in my years with them was a loss of internet for 2 days, but that affected multiple ISPs across most of northern England and wasn't under their control.

    Absolutely disappointing and robbery, I did a transfer of my ee broadband since 03/01/2020 since then today is 20/02/2020 my hub keep rebooting and not working, it turns on for 1 and 2 hours and then stop working for 5 hours and more (no internet) I and my wife called several time to get somebody to fix the problem 3 times we didn’t got an engineer the 4th time we booked an engineer from 8 to 1 pm he came at 8am i was sleeping due after work I was so knackered i couldn’t hear the phone then I did it yesterday and was confirmed with text message yet nobody came it’s 12:50 pm, the think which making me crazy is that to get service it takes you ages and nothing is done but when is about payment we never delay them it easier for them to take money but not to do a good service, this February i was struggling with internet (ee broadband) it was sooooo bad suddenly I found a text message telling me that my bill is ready to pay it which is amount of £31.50 that so silly and not good for this brand at all and if you want to stop the contract they gonna 100% telling me you need to pay an amount bla bla ..... I’m just tired pffffffff

    I switched in January from BT to EE didn't want to as BT has always been reliable but having got EE at 1/2 price the decision was taken out of my hands but cannot say a bad word about EE as the service is as good and speed is slightly faster (2-3 mbps)so would highly recommend EE from my experience to date

    Very poor internet. There guaranteed speed checks are also a scam. They go off the speed going into the router NOT what speeds you get. Was promised 30 and I'm lucky to get 20. Router is shockingly bad. 3 bed house and I cant get signal upstairs. Internet drops out randomly, was told by EE that it was the fastest in the are, also not true as next door has double the speed.

    was a very good company until BT got their hands on it.
    BEWARE if you are considering a fixed price contact with them, their current contract give them the right to increase your by CPI. so much for a " fixed price contract"

    Big mistake switching to EE. Great talk from sales person on ease of switching, speed of service - even gave me a personal email address if I had any problems. Needless to say all rubbish. EE take over the line then all goes dead - no phone, no BB and very poor contradictory response from EE. AVOID THEM USELESS

    Poor service and NO parental controls in place to protect children instead wanting you to MICRO manage each device. DO NOT BUY I you want to protect your children’s online safety as they are not interested in helping and direct you to Norton who on doubt they have a nice relationship with for year 2 sales that you have to have to continue the service whilst in contract or your children can watch any online content they want online via WI Fi.

    No idea where to start, intermittent failures for almost 4 months. Closed incidents without agreement that problem was solved, no call backs when promised. No response to complaints. With so much shocking service they offered £30 compensation ( only when pushed). I’ve accepted yet still waiting an update. Will leave as soon as I can get the release current contract.

    I regret the decision of switching to EE.They are the worst broadband provider you can ever find.Pathetic service.Broadband speed would always fluctuate,Signals used to drop frequently.I have been calling customer services again and again, but all they would do were the remote checks.Eventually i had to switch to Sky and life has been easy since.I wouldn't recommend EE to whoever is planning to join them.

    What a pathetic service for a top price they charge. Can't wait to swich to ANY other provider. Speed is rarely over 10mb's in the evenings somewhere between 2 and 4, 5 means you're in luck! Netflix struggles most of times, good luck streaming from two devices! Had virgin before thought they were crap, these one is much-much worse. Do your research properly and never buy what they promise! Once you're hooked there is 18 months to unhook. You've been warned!

    We were promised that the package we were going for would support the amount of people on the internet at one time, which was incorrect.

    Then when we check to see what plans are avaliable for that little bit extra we find out that the ones they're offering us were not avaliable within our area in the first place.

    calling them up for them to feed the same automated script answers to which low and behold do nothing but cause more issues.

    In the last 4 months we've had nothing but issues, internet outages, phone line downs, broadband shutting down completely to the point of having to have them send a new router out because the one we got had faults to have the one we have now giving the same faults.

    Spending for 50 download / 50 upload and can't even manage over 1 upload and 20 download lmao.

    These clowns offered one of the best speeds and TV packages at the time. The ee TV never worked even tho its just digital free veiw with 4 or 5 extra channels. The WiFi router was always losing connection at least 3 times a week. The speed of the WiFi struggled to stream videos from my phone to my or from amazon prime to top it all off after we have swapped to a better provider we have had a very rude letter demanding there rubbish router and TV box back (wouldn't of minded a nice letter asking) bunch of *****

    Internet cut out 6/7 times daily, rang up multiple times and they upgraded me for an extra £1 per month, everything was great for 3 months and now the exact same thing is happening again, have been told we will have to pay an early termination fee for leaving even though they can't fix the problem

    Absolutely shocking. Cuts out every 10 mins, send an engineer twice who 'cannot find a fault'. Told that it will settle down, has been 4 months and still doesn't work properly. Customer advisor says it's probably because I'm trying to download too many things at once which is not the case. Would highly recommend using someone else.

    Awful. Cuts out several times an evening, slow to load and am cut off every month due to 'no data' - with service resuming a couple of days later. Contract is up in February and I'll be leaving them.

    I contacted customer services as the engineer had not turned up on the day he should have. I spoke to Laura, who was very understanding and professional. She sorted out a new appointment for me and even called that evening to check that the work was done and I was satisfied. Well done Laura, you turned the situation around and you are an asset to EE.

    Reported buffering problem Customer service very helpful & arranged for Openreach to visit as they said I had a problem near my home. They came & checked the whole of my house & said they would come back. Customer service called to ask how they had done & they booked a call out for following day - stayed in whole day & NO ONE came from OPENREACH - no phone call to apologise for not turning up & no call back from EE. I think they just want you to go away !!!!

    Compared to BT, I am so glad I switched. When my BT renewal came up, BT was so unhelpful, would not move on price and would only offer 18 months rather than a 1 year contract I was on. I asked the BT adviser what the early termination would be and she said it was another department and could not say, and would only know how much if and when I ended the contract. This was just stupid, she could not tell me the T&Cs she is asking me to sign... terrible. Most ask for about 40-50% of the full contract, so no wonder they are all pushing people to longer term contracts.
    Decided I needed to change even though it is a monopoly all back by BT OpenReach's infrastructure , and BT own several of the other providers anyhow.
    Called EE and they have been nothing but helpful and honest. Said they have been improving their call centres to keep & win customers, since you need to differentiate when the product is the same, and it shows. The speed is a bit lower (55Mb) than my BT connection (70Mb) but had a long chat with them and believe it will be resolved once line settles down (been just 2 days). The other provided will need to up their game and focus on customer service, EE's is very good so far and not dodge my many questions.

    Worst broadband i have ever experienced. Being I loyal EE mobile user, I decided to try their broadband.Apart from getting 5Gb data boost, theres nothing positive to it.It keeps disconnecting and the speed is terrible at night time.If you are thinking of getting their broadband, please don't. you will regret the decision.

    Speed is terrible atm, very hit and miss and constant dragging, freezing and crashing from eight o' clock at night onwards, after a smooth period of no problems for over a year. It costs a small fortune as well. I'd leave but have read so many horror stories about how complicated switching is and how mafia-esque phone companies can get about it. I haven't used EE customer services so cannot comment on that (I just put 3/5 because it's midway/neutral) but the service overall is unreliable and frustrating.

    Overall EE is a company that usually lets you down when you need customer service whether it is about intermittent broadband service or equipment (e.g. cable) that they are meant to deliver but doesn't arrive or even looking into a bill query.

    cut me of for no reason at all joined sky and they keep sending letters asking for £11 21 saying they have disconnect my services and close my account and giving me 30 days to pay this amount before they take further action to recover the outstanding debt wich may include referring my account to a dept collector I wrote a letter back to them saying they had already disconnected my internet and landline saying when I rang them that someone with a different phone number had canceled my contract with and ask me to set another contract up with them and said it would take 14 days but they would reconnect me within 7 days I canceled the contract the next day and joined sky in theory they ee still owe me money because I was paid up every month sky router is far better than ee and the only time I had any thing to do with ee was by phone or email sky sent me all the contract papers and in my eyes a far better the ee who are a bunch of crooks
