DPD didn’t attempt delivery and returned phone to EE

[Karalene]

I recently switched to EE and got an iPhone contract. I paid the upfront cost and was looking forward to my new phone . I was told DPD would deliver it today however the delivery updated to dispatched and then all of a sudden said it’s being returned back to EE. I have been home all day and no one has attempted a delivery and I’ve had no explanation as to why it’s been returned.

I joined EE and ordered a phone. EE says it’s dispatched but the status hasn’t changed in a while whereas DPD had received the parcel and updated to say it’s being returned to EE without attempting a delivery. Why? How do I get my order?

I called EE they told me to go into store and verify ID which I did. I then had to call again to say I’d done this. EE told me on the phone I’d have an email with an update. I have heard nothing. Still don’t have my phone yet received an email to say the direct debit is set up so they want me to pay for a phone I have not yet received. It has been a week. It’s not acceptable
