Personal Unlimited VS Business Unlimited

Hi

 

I'm looking to buy a "sim only" unlimited data plan. This is for use as a home broadband connection with a cat20 LTE router due to lack of usable fixed-line options. I've already tested EE for this location with good signal and 5 carrier aggregation.

 

The 24 month contract on the "personal" site gave me pause since I may not be staying at this location for 2 years. I also noticed the business unlimited plans are either shorter or cheaper (including VAT) and I'm struggling to figure out why, and whether I am allowed to use a business plan instead:

 

Personal -> Sim Only -> Unlimited, 24 Month = £37.00 (inc VAT)
Business -> Sim Only -> Unlimited, 12 Month = £38.40 (inc VAT)
Business -> Sim Only -> Unlimited, 24 Month = £32.40  (inc VAT)

 

1. What are the differences between business and personal unlimited plans?

2. Are non-business-owners allowed to purchase business plans?


What am I missing?

Do the terms of service differ substantially?

Must I be a business owner to purchase?

 

I've found anecdotes of non-business users purchasing business plans but the requirements are not made explicitly clear on the website. Clarification would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks

Welcome to the community and thanks for posting. 🙂

 

Business price plans are only available to business customers. They have different terms and conditions to personal plans.

 

To open or change to a business account, we'd require a business proof. Generally a Business bank statement, cheque book or utility bill.
