Former EE Community Manager

Hi there,

For APN settings please see our dedicated Help page at https://ee.co.uk/help/mobile/fix-problem/Managing-APN-settings.

This Help page will give you the link to download the correct APN settings for your device. It will also give you a step-by-step guide for the most modern devices.

Below is a list of EE APN settings for manual input if you need them.

Nothing showing other than the standard EE network, and O2, Vodafone etc
etc.

@Jonathanw2 :I don't believe that this is an APN issue. Only 1 EE network exists across the airways (unlike O2 which has at least 2).

My daughter has a privately owned iPhone and uses a family EE account managed by me. She was in Japan for a year using a Japanese sim.  Now back in the UK her data is not working but calls and texts are.  I don't understand your info re I phones please advise how to rectify the problem.

Good morning @RH0803

If the SIM is placed into another device does this work OK?

Hi can you tell me if an imoo watch phone is compatable with your network. If so what are the APN settings?

Hello @fritz2

Welcome to the community. 

Is this a physical SIM device? if yes, EE does support the watch. 

You can find a list of networks that are available to the watch by visiting this page HERE

Information on EE APN setting can be found HERE

We don't have another iPhone unfortunately.  Is there another way to check please.  Calls etc all working and data is intermittent.
