Like others in these forums I was convinced to move from BT to EE for my broadband and TV (EE sold as the “premium” service) and it has been nothing but trouble
Really not impressed with the service since moving at the start of the month (March), it does seem like the plan is too get as many people moved over to get more money (setting up the direct debit was the only thing that went smoothly!) while the backend systems clearly can’t cope or weren’t ready, I mean how difficult can it be to link a few accounts together?
Parents and friends are coming to get end of Sky/Virgin contracts and I honestly can’t recommend switching right now, especially for the TV product

And just to clarify - I'm not having a go at anyone from the support department, anyone I've spoken to has tried to help but it seems like with the move from BT to EE not everyone is being given the correct training so how could they help!

@scassidy1986 I'm really sorry about the problems you experienced with your order. The linking of the accounts to yoru EE ID is a known problem and a specialist off line team are working through a backlog of these at the moment. They hope to have this cleared by the end of next week so you should be able to manage your services on the app then. I apologise for any inconvenience caused.
With regards to the error on your TV service, how are the boxes conneced? Are you using any ethernet switches?
Thanks
Neil

Using the internet - I managed to get sorted today after contacting support with my broadband and TV setup on a different email address so I can now login and manage them.
For some reason but they were unable to run any tests against my broadband (maybe because the account was just setup?) but after doing a factory reset of the router it seems like things are working finally.
Still have some issues with activating the Game Pass for gaming (I just get a generic error that it failed), but other things like linking Netflix were resolved by updating my Netflix account to match the EE broadband/TV email!
