I want to buy a device but had to login

Profile closed

I can see an xbox controller I want to buy and the price but need to login to proceed. I have created an account and gone to the community page but still I am not given the option to  uy the device. It seems to have tricked me into registering.

Seems like Phishing so far.

Do you already have a mobile phone or SIM contract with EE? You cannot buy an accessory online unless you already have a mobile phone or SIM contract from EE. You are expected to pay for it along with your existing EE mobile plan. That's why it's telling you to login to upgrade your existing plan or add another device. You have neither of these.

Thanks for your reply,I thought as much as there was still no option to buy after registration.They do not say that's the case, just login or register.Now they have my info and I still do not have access to what was advertised. Classic Phishing tactic.Certainly not made me want to be a customer of EE.Thank you for your quick and clear response, you should work for EE's Web development team! ;)Sent from my Galaxy

Thanks! You're welcome 🙂 ! Glad I could be of assistance & trust it is now sorted.
