Hi all,
Just wanted to see if anyone else has dealt with this specific headache after switching to EE broadband.
I got a landline purely for my aging parents to call me—it's cheaper for them, and they have my old number (which they rely on for fast-dial).
When I signed up a month ago, the sales team basically promised me that: "You'll get a temporary number, but just call us the next day and we'll easily port your old one back." So I thought but wrong.
One month later, the landline still doesn't work, and my old number is nowhere to be seen. It's clearly a much more complex porting process than the sales team let on.
The irony is that this number was originally issued by BT five years ago when I moved here, so it's not some ancient relic.
Has anyone else been through this with EE? Did you manage to get your old number ported back, and if so, how long did it actually take? Any tips on who to contact inside EE to speed this up would be amazing!
Thanks.
