competition hyperlink on EE text, is it genuine or scam?

I received this hyperlink from EE to a competition. https:discover.ee.co.uk/w515w3X2

is it genuine or a scam ?

That looks a genuine EE website to me. The underlying domain ee.co.uk is in evidence

Thanks for the reply,

Strangely Norton flags this as a Malicious website.

You sure you quoted the link (which is on EE's domain) correctly? Many others today are getting similar fake Rewards offers pointing them at like:

You can use your Reward points to redeem eligible rewards, offers or discounts on the official EE website:
