Caller with EE bdge

Yagmur1 · ‎14-03-2026

A person wearing an EE badge called Tuesday saying EE were up grading fibre cables in Highbridge area Somerset and we would get new router. Strange as we could have been told online. Is this some sort of scam or potential fraud. Any one could print a badge with EE on it.

I think you have your answer there... asking for an ID card may have seen these cold-callers scurry away PDQ
