4G EE contracts

Our ee contract ends on the 31st so I'll be giving them a call about it tomorrow.

As a cautionary tale I've just found a £4.50 and £2.99 a week charge on our data SIM. When I queried it EE said someone (no doubt one of the kids) must have clicked on an advert and then we would have received a text saying we had just subscribed. Obviously since the SIM is in a router we never saw the text.

EE stopped the charges and said I could put a block on the SIM from anyone being able to put charges on it.

Certainly worth blocking such charges now rather than waiting to see your monthly bill double overnight!

Just did an upgrade deal today with EE.as my current contract expired next Saturday.

60gb a month for £23 Inc VAT

She offered me 100gb for £60/month or 50gb for £30/month
I have 2 phones on Vodafone through Onecom but the best they could do was 50gb for £23inc VAT.
Told the nice lady with EE that and she came with the 60gb deal.
Better hope my wife doesn't get addicted to Netflix with the new smart TV!!

Just looking at new deals for 4g and was offered the 200gb for £60 at EE in the shop if existing customer . But also went into Three and they offered their new product Homefi which is a Huawei 4g router 100gb for £30 a month 12 month contract . Anybody got any experience of Three? The Three comes with a "Go Binge" which means Netflix , Deezer etc are not included in the data. They are not on the website yet , just through the shop but she thought it was going out fully later on

Depends on your local coverage. Round here there is a decent 3 signal but only 3G. Their coverage maps are a guide. Foolproof way is to get a cheap PAYG sim, put it in an (unlocked ) phone and see what signal it gets in the location your router would sit

I did this and managed to get 4g signal and quite surprised at the speed so worth a try!

Nothing like a bit of competition. Good for us all hopefully, whatever the network we’re currently on.(y)

I've just renewed our 4g EE contract and managed to get the 200GB for £60 deal so well chuffed with that!

It's a multi line deal so I had to have a second SIM which on there cheapest deal was £3.99 for 4GB but if I download the EE app I can merge the two plans so it basically becomes 204GB for £63.99.

Still a massive improvement on what it was previously costing us so thanks for the heads up @upnortheast I owe you a drink :)

Would that work instead of my Phoenix gadget that holds an ee SIM card, it's supposed to put the Internet to my iPad which doesn't have cellular capability? If it does, I'd like it please

See what plusnet can offer, they run on EE but are much easier to contact

Turned out the helpfull chap I spoke to at EE was 20 miles away just outside Newcastle.

I did think how much better that was than someone 5000 miles to the East of here who you struggle to understand.and they struggle to understand you.
Another case of big company accountants knowing the price of everthjing & the value of nothing

The ee gadget I have just now is a little thing that you put a SIM card in. It's supposed to create a hotspot that the iPad can pick up wirelessly. My gadget has stopped working, but it used to be quite good since but is useless here!
