Why do I keep getting referred to a chat bot whenever I try to call EE over a pressing issue? 
could someone please explain this and also do something about it?

Hi @MichaelB311 

Becase it is an automated service. 

Thanks 




To contact EE Customer Services dial 150 From your EE mobile or 0800 956 6000 from any other phone.

EE standard opening hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 9pm - Saturday and Sunday, 8am to 8pm.

It’s the 150 I always call and it sends me to the chat room and I would prefer to talk to somebody as it’s a number of issues I would like to discuss.

I will try the other number that you gave me. I hope there is a change with that. 

Try calling EE CS on the Freephone no.(Opt 1) in my sig. instead of 150. It's more likely to get you thro' to a person.

If you think I helped please feel free to hit the "Thumbs Up" button below.

To phone EE CS: Dial Freephone +44 800 079 8586 - Option 1 for Home Broadband & Home Phone or Option 2 for Mobile Phone & Mobile Broadband

Not entirely sure "which number you call" has half as much bearing as just choosing the right menu option. Don't get caught up with trying to find an exact match for your query - choose the nearest and then just bide your time.

The IVRs are fundamentally the same on the back-end.
