A bit concerned

Hi, im after some advice if possible

I had a strange call this morning from a landline number saying they were EE asking about my SIM card update, i told them i had not requested an update, they said it was for security issues. I ended the call and then got an email from no-reply@info.ee.co.uk saying i needed to reset my password.

I called 150 and an EE guide called me back form 0800 956 5062. He sent me a text with a PIN to my account and asked me to confirm this number and then checked my account and said everything was fine and this was  a scam. What was strange is he said that the email i had would have been part of the scam. 

Ive since tried logging into my EE account and it said i had to change my password which i did, after this i got an email confirming this from the same email address i was told was a scam? Im just confused, im worried ive been possibly hacked and im not sure how to proceed? 

Does anyone know if the 0800 number and the email address are legit?

Thank in advance

Hi @Robdog76 

Welcome to the community.

It's difficult to confirm anything here, without seeing your account. The email address looks legitimate to me and the phone number that you posted looks like the same format as our customer service numbers.

If you speak with our Customer Support team, they'll be able to check your account again to double-check everything from our side, just to be sure.
