This does not work!. Tried using it to top up and got message saying I need to turn off WiFI. If I turn off Wi Fi I lose the internet, Very clever EE

The pages from EE tell me that I have to "turn off wifi" and then continue. But if I do that I cannot access the internet. Not very clever!

I may well be joining you in moving. It is actually easier to use non EE websites to top up!

@Crofter10 : It really means disconnect from your fixed BB router. You still need to connect by WiFi to your mobile router. What it's getting at is to come off your fixed BB & go to connecting by SIM. It's stupid mobile-centric EE mixing up WiFi with BB.

 

That link does not top you up but lets you buy more data with whatever credit you have. To top-up that credit 1st use the link @Leanne_T gave you.

Hi @Crofter10,

 

add-on.ee.co.uk/purchase is zero rated so you can always access it over mobile data.

 

Hope this helps.

 

James
