Can't manage broadband account in MyEE

I cannot add my broadband account to MyEE - I can access the old broadband account interface with the "SET UP YOUR HOME BROADBAND ACCOUNT" option. I click on this and try to set up, but every time I get "Something's gone wrong at our end, please try again later". I have tried validating via my mobile number and my bank account to no avail. I don't really know how to proceed because I can't spend hours on hold to customer support.. I've had the mobile account for years and EE broadband since 2022.

@Andalya I had a similar issue when trying to do same on mobile. Eventually just logged into my account on laptop via web and linked accounts Broadband/Mobile, this just happened with absolutely no issues but mobile just did not want to play.

I've tried on desktop and mobile with no joy unfortunately. 

@Andalya , are you using the same email address etc for both broadband and mobile? If the answer is yes, I would suggest ringing customer service to get this sorted.

To contact EE customer service dial 150 from your mobile phone or ring customer service for free using Skype or another phone: +44 800 079 8586 or +44 800 956 6000.

I am.. I guess phoning is the only solution, bit of a pain when they expect you to sit on hold for 30mins+!

@Andalya You may get lucky and have the request call back to your registered phone, sometimes happens, if it does listen and follow instructions. Sounds like you need CS to sort it out if they can?

It’s not possible, since we joined this year, tried to do this, now we receive in the post monthly phone and broadband  bills, the system hasn’t been set up yet to add our EE broadband it was BT to our EE mobile account. Customer services finally admitted it wasn’t possible a few months ago, they were taking money at the beginning which didn’t match what we thought because we got credits from changing over to a new contract, because of course you d paid up front for services, I was always under the impression that when you take money from a direct debit the customer should know the amount, which of course we didn’t at the beginning, the amount taken now matches what is in the contract .

Thought I'd just give a quick update. I phoned and got through to someone who was very nice and went through all the linking setup steps, assuring me it would be in place within 24h. Unfortunately this didn't happen and subsequent phone calls weren't particularly helpful. In the end I decided not to renew our broadband with EE and have gone for a faster, cheaper option.

Hi @Andalya 

Thank you for coming back to us with an update. 

I am very sorry you have left EE and moved to another broadband provider. I do appreciate you letting us know and hope you may join us again in the future. 

Thanks. 

Leanne.

I've been dealing with the same problem for 6 months. I'm on the phone to customer service as I type. This is the third time I've called EE to fix the 'add broadband account - enter billing/account number' issue. The EE guide tells me my account number, I enter it, it comes back with 'Please enter a valid billing account number'

Been on the phone now over an hour. Nothing has worked so far.
