Dear EE Customer Relations Team,
My name is Obi and I am writing to lodge a formal complaint regarding serious issues of overcharging and misrepresentation on my EE account.
Summary of Complaint:
I was previously with Sky for broadband and TV for five years, paying approximately £115/month. I received a call from an EE sales representative who offered me a new mobile phone upgrade along with broadband and TV, claiming I would get the same service as Sky but at a cheaper rate.
I was told very clearly that:
The entire deal was for 24 months.
I would pay £64/month for broadband and TV.
I would pay £70/month for my mobile contract.I repeatedly confirmed these figures during the call and only agreed based on that understanding.
However, shortly after the contracts began, I noticed the following:
My mobile bill increased by £35, eventually rising to £103/month, with unexplained and fluctuating charges.
The TV and broadband, initially quoted at £64/month, increased to £130/month within a few months.
When I questioned this, I was told (incorrectly) that I had agreed to the increase in the original sales call. I asked to listen to that recording but was denied access and told the bill stood as is.To make matters worse:
I was then issued a final bill of £2,050.99, including cancellation charges.
The contract was cancelled by EE, not by me, yet I am now being billed for a termination I did not initiate.
I also lost the phone I traded in and was told I couldn't reverse the contract without losing that device.
What I Am Requesting:
1. A full and immediate review of my account and billing history.
2. A copy of the original sales call recordings where the alleged agreement was made.3. The removal of the cancellation charges and a fair adjustment to reflect the actual services and rates I was promised.
4. A formal response within 14 days.
If I do not receive a satisfactory resolution, I will escalate this matter to the Ombudsman Services: Communications and file a report with Ofcom, as this appears to be a serious case of mis-selling and unjust billing.
Please treat this as a formal complaint in line with your complaint handling policy.
I look forward to your urgent attention to this matter.

This is not EE Customer Services, nor a route through which a formal complaint can be lodged. This a public forum filled with other users and visible to anyone on the net.
The EE Complaints webform is located here: https://ee.co.uk/help/contact-ee/complaint/complaint-form
You may have to edit your long statement as there is a word limit on the form, im sure there are tools you're familiar with which can help you do this if you get stuck.

This forum is not, and never has been, part of EE's formal complaints process. Also to point out that Ofcom don't investigate individual customer complaints, while the Ombudsman require you to have either exhausted EE's process first or be deadlocked.
