@Michelle218 EE and all providers more than likely up and until midnight of the day to switch over and get the connection all sorted, have you had any text e-mail etc from EE as welcome you are NOW connected etc?

Hi, i had an email to say Your Service Is Now Live.
I did read it may take up to midnight from a previous email but I assumed my wifi would work now as my Service is live.
