Hi, has anyone worked out the technique to make EE listen? And work out how to speak to someone who is helpful and sensible who they can have a dialogue with. Calling the phone number and even using the services for open cases which provides a link to continue a conversation is hopeless.
I've been trying to communicate since 25 January and have not today concluded that they really don’t have a clue.
Each time you call(it’s always the way as they never call back when they say they will either on the same day or the day after).
There must be someone at EE who knows what they’re doing and can talk to customers and solve problems.
meanwhile I’m paying for a service that I’m not fully receiving and wasting hours talking people who either don’t care or don’t know who to talk to to help me solve my BB issue. And my family is paying for extra data on their phones because of non availability of BB.
I’m frankly sick of calling and being told that I need to wait 72 hours (excluding weekends and possibly not working hours depending who you talk to) to get the issue passed to someone else who doesn’t know what the problem is until I repeat it, again.
so to repeat, if any one can suggest a phone number of a person at EE, who knows how EE works and has access to tech teams who I seems aren’t allowed to talk to the customers, then I would be pleased to hear from you.
for context, my problem is that the ‘homework’ downtime controls are locked on. I agree this sounds like a crazy simple problem to deal with but it’s seemingly beyond EE !

Hi, I never did get a call back. They really do need to learn some basic courtesy.
I have however just received a lovely reassuring email telling me that my bills will increase in March - and a reminder about the great WiFi and customer service.
couldn't make it up!

update. Just had a call back. TMC no less.
theyre going to send a new EE router. (As agreedd on 25 Jan from memory).
happy days!
The person mentioned they the BT disks are compatible with rhe EE router. No reason not to believe that?

@jdavidwood They may send you the EE Smarthub (2023) version just one below the Plus, will link the what's available now at least pictures and about how good they all are is documented at least that will work with your complete disk set. App will get there eventually just not what year/millenium or even BT to EE parental control comparison's will be stated, so it will be a little bit suck it and see what goes.

I am having very similar issues, (so EE, please see above to save me re-writing the same). The the recorded woman telling us that EE is again voted the number one service provider seems frankly to be misguided and EE need to address their customer service urgently. We are treated as a commodity not as customers.

@RochesterHaggis Posting on the Forum get's you zero EE assistance, there is no account access, know one knows who you are, you would be better off filling in the complaints form found on the contact us if that helps.
