I have recently moved abroad in a rush due to unforeseen circumstances and didn’t have the chance to start the process of changing provider until today. Woke up early to make a start on it all but haven’t been able to get through to anyone. Tried contacting through the EE app and was told I would be put through to a member of their team in about an hour and ten minutes. Still haven’t heard anything back through that. Have now called 150 and the abroad number +44 7953 966150 a total of 18 times now, making it to the holding stage each time, just for them to hang up on me, 10 minutes into each call. I have full bars of service and understand they have tons of other callers, but this just feels like they’re trying to ignore me till the point that I give up trying. @ EE, do better please. This has been the most frustrating and stressful customer service experience I’ve ever had and will not be returning to EE when I move back to the UK.

Hi @jack291,
Welcome to the EE Community 🙂
I am sorry you are having an issue getting through to us, something definitely seems wrong if its hanging up as that is not how the hold system will work.
Have you tried switching the roaming network you are connected on for the call or calling through Skype free on +44 800 079 8586 to see if that is the issue?
If you are cancelling by moving to a different UK provider, you can cancel via a PAC code (if looking to transfer the number) or STAC code if not, and those codes can be produced via your online account and given to your new provider to cancel. What is a PAC Code and How Do I Request One? | Profile Help | EE
