I have an Apple Watch with EE, Broadband with BT and a Apple phone with EE. Was interested in getting an iphone pro max 128gb and had a look at prices online. Was quoted £69 per month for this contract will Vodafone for 25gb more is £16 a month cheaper. Actually considering leaving EE and BT for everything as this is ridiculous additional cost over 24 months - £384 more. Crazy

Existing customers may have the option of upgrading and getting a device on 0% finance with EE, but you have to call and ask. You will then pay for the phone and airtime separately but you will only get the yearly CPI+ increase on the airtime agreement.

CPI may get to over 18% next year, there's no way I'd take out a handset plan with EE that could have a 22% price rise soon after taking it out.

i was on phone to EE for an hour and that’s best I could get as existing customer. It baffles me that EE are so much more expensive than their competitors in every respect. I’ll run down my contract then move it all
