@Toppo1984 : Are you on contract or PAYG?

On Contract: Follow Switching Content Lock OFF or ON .
On PAYG: On PAYG you can't control Content Lock from your MyEE. Instead you need to call EE with a credit card handy & pay a refundable token amount to prove you are over 18. Alternatively you can visit an EE store with some photo ID.

Hi @Toppo1984

Thanks for highlighting this, I'm very sorry you've had that experience.

If you'd like to make a complaint about your experience, you can do so on our complaints web page.

I'm keen for this to be resolved for you, so If you don't have a credit card available, you'd need to pop into one of our stores with some I.D.

For this to be resolved, we'd need you to pop back into a store.

I've made an complaint on the website they said they will get back to me I shouldn't have to pop back down to the shop again though when they said it was sorted the first time round

Thanks for letting us know that you've logged a complaint online @Toppo1984

You should get a reply within around 7 days.

I'm sorry, without a credit card, the only way to remove a content lock on Pay As You Go is to go to a store.
