I agree that this new system is useless, and instead of getting to speak to someone after going through far too many menus, now it is even more impossible. Customers want to speak to a human being and all this digital banter is missing the point. This new system of communication is pants, just like their service update text service where EE send you messages many times a day saying that there is a problem in your area, or that it has now been fixed and to close your phone down and reopen it, which, as it does not specify where the problem is, seems it could be anywhere in the UK. They need to get common sense on board and stop playing silly games and learn to simply answer the phone on 150 and speak with us.

+44 800 079 8586 goes to exactly the same menu as dialling 150.

This sounds like you have registered for the "my places" function on the coverage tool. You can give upto 5 locations a name of your choosing, to get proactive updates of network issues.

https://coverage.ee.co.uk/coverage/ee and select "manage your saved locations"

I did  and just checked this after wasting 20 minutes trying to speak to an agent, but as I say the service is simply incredibly badly run in terms of just being able to just speak to someone at EE. They need to hire some staff to answer the phones instead of constantly blowing their own trumpet about how great they are and not know how to communicate properly.

Hi @hughmoz 

I am sorry you have been unable to get in touch with us, you can find ways to contact us here. 

Have you been able to remove the managed areas in the coverage checker?

Hi Leanne

As, I keep saying the communications in trying to talk to someone at EE are appalling. The original system of simply dialling 150 worked, and although EE clearly do not have enough staff to deal with your customer base at least it involved actually speaking to an agent.

This morning I have had 25 texts from EE trying to sort out a straightforward thing. This is purely because your text system of engagement is useless, repetitive and a waste of time. Customers do not have the time to be free labour for EE when EE are the problem. Instead of trying to get out of dealing with issues just answer the phone on 150 and sort out what needs sorting out.

I cannot believe the lack of common sense in EE’s management and the lack of integrity in just answering the phone, rather than posturing and hiding behind long-winded excuses with a digital system that is completely useless and time consuming.
