Connecting Home Broadband to My EE Account is Bugged

Hey all, I have just got my first EE product after always being a Vodafone loyalist...I bought the EE super fast home broadband but when I try to link it to the My EE account, either online or on the app it always gives me the same error. It gives me 4 lines of actual code that looks exactly like this:

{
"code": "500",
"message": "QuotaViolation"
}

When I called them on their support, they were nice but they had no idea how to fix it and said it could be 10+ days before they email me with a solution...I am also up for contract renewal for my phone and don't really have time to wait for 10 days, does anyone know anything of this/has seen this issue before?
Thanks

Seb

I also have this issue, it's ridiculous that the only options to report this are this forum, a phone call or a letter.

This is precisely the kind of issue best reported by email or a form.

Adding insult to injury, your complaint form is also broken.

As in screenshot, the counter stays well under 500 words, but it insists it's more - presumably you have a poorly coded regex?

I'm also getting this 'quotaviolation' json error when trying to register my broadband.
Any updates, please, EE, on the nature of the problem and how to work around it?

Hey All, Just for another update. After all this time there is still no solution to the problem, I have been on calls with the Broadband care team, the billing team, the IT team, the App solutions team to no avail. I was told by Phil in the "IT" team that there was "no end in sight" for the issue even after all this time. I suggest that all who have this issue instead raise the issues with EE to Ofcom as ringing numbers or contacting support helplines for EE is getting me/us nowhere. If everyone who reads this raises the issue to Ofcom we have the highest chance of getting a solution. I will be ending all contracts with EE and I suggest you all do the same. Can't say I didn't try.

I had the same issue I tried it again on a different network (not EE) and it worked fine.
