EE Home Broadband Reviews

Think we must have paid the few ‘customers’ who have provided a good review on here or they are written by their own staff or something. My experience as most others - dreadful. Switched from BT - No router turned up leaving me without any broadband for 2 weeks as they don’t have any way of sending the equipment faster than 2nd class Royal Mail - I am not joking - ee do not use any courier or even 1st class post - not even when they have royally screwed up your order - you have been warned - and if you complain the response is extremely nonchalant- oh well these things happen I think were the exact words and compensation is a £15 credit for the next bill of the service they have failed to provide. This is a true a true story I had to make special arrangements with my place of work to go into the offices which were closed increasing my risk of contracting covid because ee can’t pay for a courier

I've had a dreadful experience of upgrading through EE. First the installation refused to put the line where I wanted 'due to covid' but said if I complained EE would send him back out to move the line. EE wouldn't do this and instead sent an engineer out he said the line should be moved. EE rejected this request (from the engineer they sent out!). So I enquired about the cooling off period and was told they could not return me to my old service once connected with a new line. The only option would involve being without broadband for 2 weeks which would mean loss of work for. In short I've ended up with a slower connection, the TV doesn't work properly and I have had to fork out for Hardwear to try and rectify this. Don't upgrade through EE, just go elsewhere.

Rubbish service.
EE has to provide a minimum of 3.4Mbps but sometimes, in the evenings, is less than 0.19Mbps (even 0.08 as well). They do not accept to brake the contract but want you to pay till the end of the contract. They know that speed is out of T&C's but they know as well that it will cost time and money to follow the legal procedure. (Crooks)

If you want a nervous breakdown, choose EE.
The promised service was so terrible it barely worked. So bad the mobile service, my bank was unable to send me texts. They put my number in the telephone directory, despite my ex directory request. They then refused to remove it. They took direct debits which were never set up. They offered me derisory compensation, including refund of the direct debit, which I reluctantly accepted. They then ignored my reply. Then, after emailing endlessly, they sent me an email saying it was time it was sorted out!!!! I agreed the terms again. They next day they withdrew the offer and told me to go to the ombudsman. They are a disgusting bunch, shameful and unprofessional. If you want misery, get EE because that is all you will get!!!!

I arranged the service but it never worked properly from the start. I had 4 engineers visit but couldn't diagnose the problem. I made 3 or 4 calls per week to their customer services since Jan. I cancelled in April and they are billing me £546.58 cancellation charges for a service that didn't work and didnt meet the contractual standards. This is woeful

Absolutely rubbish broadband service. Keeps getting disconnected. slow downloads. Getting connected on mobile devices is a recurrent nightmare. AVOID AT ALL COSTS

Useless broadband and when I decided to change the home broadband provider got extra charges.
Best way is to avoid EE.

Worst internet ever, very slow keep disconnecting, completely rubbish

Muchas gracias. ?Como puedo iniciar sesion?

Has got worse over last few years, aslso rang customer services twice and was left on hold both times

Abolutely dire,cannot load facebook,all photos -eg newspapers are pixelled or blank. Takes about 7 minutes to get google homepage. Cancelled contract!

Very unreliable broadband. Very slow and WiFi keeps dropping out. EE have told us that as far as they are concerned it is fine so it must be a fault our end. No further “help” given.

However, after 5 days without internet we tried BTFON pay as you go. Brilliant speed. No loss of WiFi signal, even in the attic. Therefore definitely not our end!

Goodbye EE. We are off to greener pastures with better WiFi. Such a shame because your mobile phone service is great.

THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU SIGN UP. Always had good service from EE on mobile phone so decided to go with them for broadband and landline. Complained about interference on landline and broadband interruptions several times a day and 10 days later after no contact I ring them again to be told that they have made an appointment for the next day - well no-one told me and the member of staff on that occasion was very pleasant and helpful and promised to ring back with confirmed new appointment. Later have a message from a different member of staff advising that the engineers had been unable to access the property due to snow and ice - a lie, the milkman, the postman and I, a mere woman driver, had been in and out several times. Engineer said he rang but line blocked to unknow numbers (true) but left no message. This member of staff then proceed to treat me in the most condescending manner telling me to alter the settings to make my phone more available and that I should call back in a few days to make a new appointment when the weather improves 'because you know my dear, they have large vans' She is obviously unaware that I drive a 7.5 ton lorry in good weather or bad. She was unaware of my conversation some two hours previously with a different member of staff. Whilst she was polite her lack of up to date knowledge and her condescending manner are unacceptable and the service the same. Time for a change.

I recently switched my FTTC line from Plusnet (with the Plus addon) to EE. EE sent a new router so I decided to try it in place of my Asus AC68U router. The broadband speed improved immediately from about 19MBps to about 23Mbps. But the reliability has gone down. I have had several interruptions, and large downloads sometimes take forever or fail. The WiFi range of the EE router is also not as good as the AC68U.

This internet is an absolute travesty. It is vile. Never, no matter how cheap the deal is, never side with EE. I'm am now stuck with what is the most awful internet I've ever had. Internet from 10 years ago would trump this broadband. Never go with EE.

EE WiFi is the shittest WiFi I have ever fucking experienced. EE if u see this sort your fucking shit out u dirty scummy company your WiFi is slower than a ducking dead slug you stupid cunts.

Overall Broadband speed is ok but I sometimes lose signal if I'm in the kitchen or bathroom. My biggest gripe however is the lies that they tell you. I was told that there wouldn't be a deposit as I'm already with EE which is why I chose them in the first place so imagine my shock when my first bill went out and it was £73! That was after having my broadband up and running after for only 3 days with the month before being without it working as the work hadnt been done on any of the days it was supposed to be done. I also set up for my bill to go out on the 8th of each month so I know I have the money to pay it which is why they set it up for the 5th instead

I was moving from SE London to Aylesbury. It is a new built area so EE does not provide broadband in that area of Aylesbury as Openreach doesn't serve the property.
I could not find the property in Openreach's broadband availability checker hence, asked them to raise this with Openreach, they said they will
investigate internally, there was complete silence from them for the next few days. Every time I called them, they kept asking me for the new address I was moving to. I told them it should be
on your file because you are investigating this. They said it's not on their file, there is no mention of the address on the system and their notes but the back end team has it.
I could not understand how it was not on their file
when they were actually investigating this. I used to work for an ISP and I know how the system works,
finally I had to raise a complint with them and they agreed to raise with Openreach. In a couple of days they got back to me saying
they cannot supply broadband at the property. Had they raised this with Openreach on day one all this drama could have been avoided.
I am trying to highlight the fact their members of staff are lacking good customer service skills, also when a customer tells them they are moving to
a particular property the address should be entered on the system and the customer should not have to repeat the address like a broken tape recorder.
Very poor customer service.

Poor ‘max’ fibre broadband. You really don’t get what you pay for. Mediocre broadband speed littered with frequent router failures and total service failures.

Over-priced, incredibly slow and EE teams that are very difficult to pin down what is happening / why it's terrible. When I asked to leave they all said that they understand why and they are surprised at how long I have stayed given how terrible it is. Even leaving - they have made it so difficult - my new provider will do it / i should have done it - here is a bill for last month even though you thought you'd left etc. Good news when you're really messed around they offer you a £15 voucher towards a bill that you don't think you should be paying anyway!
