    Constant issues with speed and quality through contract. Trying to get through to customer service is like pulling teeth. The speed never came near what was advertised and we had very few weekends where we weren't throttled, again - not what was advertised. Avoid.

    Switched over from very reliable Sky ISDN, because of the 10GB mobile data offer. Took over 2 weeks to settle down - constant dropouts/speed issues etc. Infuriating, compared to top providers. But a month on, the speed is constantly 20 mbps (advertised as 13),and the router/modem seems to have a better range than the cheapo Sky box. Seems a good bargain for £21 (so far). Haven't had to talk to customer support, as yet.

    Comments:

    Initially my contact was for a complaint relating to one of their authorised online sellers called Metrophone. When I tried contacting them their telephone number was not in use, so I tried cancelling the purchase. Eventually I was in contact with a guy called Daniel in the exec team at EE, and credit where it is due, he was brilliant. I was so impressed I decided to take out my broadband with them, but I told him I had read some bad reviews about waiting time for equipment and connection. He sent me a mobile Internet device with data FREE of charge for the interim peroid. Four months later, Daniel had left the business and EE have used the direct debit set up for my mobile phone and taken £45 for the FREE device (my mobile phone contract was £14 per month)! I struggled to get my money back and I am now in deadlock. The exec team have passed me from pillar to post! One of the team actually made threats towards me, suggesting that if I don't agree to their resolution suggestions, they will revoke the resolution deal from the original complaint back in December! Absolutely appalled at the handling of THEIR mistake! Be warned .... they cannot be trusted with access to your bank account! The bank did get the £45 back, but I would not pay anything by direct debit to this company ever again!

    I was an EE mobile customer and the service has always been excellent, I received an email from EE offering a deal on their fibre broadband and, as a mobile customer I would get 10mb of free data on my mobile. It also came at the same time sky put up its prices.

    Having switched to EE fibre (easiest and best part) I have now had to visits from bt openreach to try and resolve the poor speed issues the last one on Tuesday the engineer was here for almost 2hrs, rewired the house, the connection in the cabinet but, still the speed is no better used to get 34mbps from sky now I can only get 18mbps down the same phone line! BT say it’s an issue with EE, EE says its BT.

    Worst service ever.

    The mobile network I found to be very good
    so because of this we got EE broadband hoping for the same quality
    No it is so un-reliable and i usually find it cut out at least twice a night and even when it does work it is slow compared to other broadbands
    it is a scam
    I was applauded by the low quality and after reporting the issue many times and still no improvement or any action on there part at all I am disgusted
    I hope anyone considering EE will learn from my mistake and go to BT

    I decided to go with EE broadband after reading external reviews online. I was kept up to date throughout and everything came in time for the switchover.
    I have been pleasantly surprised by both speed and reliability, I did have an initial problem of devices not connecting but once I spoke to their technical support via a video call, it was found that I had placed the router in a poor location. Once I had moved this, everything worked perfectly and all devices connect well
    The speed is good and close to advertised (Fibre - I am still within the 10 day adjustment period) and have had no problems with connections since then. Customer support was quick and I got through to someone within 2 minutes both times and found them very helpful

    Is the worst seevice ever. I had problems all the time! The connection was dropping at every 5 minutes. I used to call them at every 3 weeks and they were sending me engineer. And i asked them to cancel my contract and they took me again money for another month of no service. Awful!

    The WORST company I have EVER come across. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY! The WiFi turns off every single night without fail and funnily enough it always seems to happen once the office are closed therefore I cannot contact them. And when I have called I’ve been told that the WiFi needs to have a problem at the time I call so that they can see the issue. They also refuse to help you unless all your bills are up to date even if you have a payment plan. I wouldn’t even recommend this company to my dog

    I’ve been with EE three years now, had some issues with sky before and it was a pain to speak to their Indian support.
    Had an issue once with EE when switching from sky, had to call them a few times, they’ve fixed it and gave me one month free. I’ve had fibre, then fibre plus, now I’ve signed up for fibre plus again.
    It’s easy to contact them, at 8:30am I had to wait for consultant about 7 min but then around 12:30pm they’ve picked up straight away.
    Sky would be £3 cheaper monthly but I’m staying with EE as it was always fine for the last three years.

    I have been a customer for many many years and now decided to change provider. Customer service difficult to reach, I had twice my broadband speed reviewed and "rectified" however it'still very slow, certainly always much slower than contracted, a smooth streaming or quick downloading is nearly impossible. I live in the centre of London when having a good broadband should not be an issue

    I received a cold call to join EE broadband a year ago on a 18 month contract. I was told that it would be "cheaper & faster" than my sky broadband I had at the time which was giving me download speeds of around 10Mbps.

    I agreed to join - paying a severance fee to Sky.

    Unfortunately, since I switched over the internet speeds were very slow <1Mbps and sometimes the internet completely dropped. I raised the issue multiple times with EE and did all that they said to remedy this. It was always slow and the drops in connections kept happening.

    Ultimately, after a while EE sent an engineer who was able to get me speeds of up to 6Mbps (albeit for a short time) but the drops in connection got worse. I was fed up and kept raising the issue.

    Finally, at end of December I asked to leave the contract without paying the severance. They said that is not possible and I need to give a formal notice of leave and then they have 30 days to try and fix the issue. I did that.

    They sent someone round and tried a few things but the issue wasn't solved. I gave my notice at end of Jan and EE informed me I need to pay the severance fee. Their explanation was that the issue that I raised was "fixed" when they put in a solution and any future issues I have are treated as a new issue and hence for their part they have fixed my issue. I have raised more than 15 issues in the time I was contracted to EE - all of which are apparently closed. And because of this I am to pay a severance fee when I leave EE.

    To top it off they have the nerve to call me yesterday to incentivise me to stay with them. You can guess what my reply was!

    Very expensive at £32.50 a month over a 12 month contract. I found staff annoying and rude. Service poor and speeds random. Wouldn't use EE again.

    Wel’ EE broadband is one of the worst service provider in uk so far everyone knows.
    I been with them nearly 3 years as I had no choice but at the end I did terminate the contract without pay as I stopped direct debit .
    i don’t care what action they will take as EE didn’t care about my service.
    Usually EE customer service are very poor.
    Finally ,I do request everyone not to take EE.
