On 23rd October I renewed my daughter’s contract over the phone, choosing to go for an iPhone 15 in pink.
The next day we received the package but was disappointed to find it contained what we believed was a titanium coloured iPhone 14 pro max.
We called EE to advise the wrong handset was delivered and asked whether we could return it to the store.
We were told this wasn’t possible but they would send a returns package for us to return the item.
Several calls later and this has never been received.
We’ve asked to speak to managers and this has been refused. Today, we were promised a call back which never happened.
We tried going to the store in Mansfield and the staff member checked the phone and said he believes the handset was a fake and that they’ve had several fakes also delivered to store.
We then called again EE again, and were advised we need to speak to Chanel returns.
We’ve tried to do this but we can’t progress the call without providing the IMEI number, however the IMEI we have isn’t recognised. I’m assuming this is down to it being fake.
It appears tagg no one at EE is willing to help even though it is EE who have sent a fake phone.
Any ideas of how best to progress?
Have even commented on EE’s CEO’s Marc Allera’s LinkedIn profile, who also appears to be ignoring the situation we find ourselves in.

Hi @Gaffer4
I'm really sorry to hear about this. When you speak to our Mobile Care team, they should be able to report this to our supply chain team, who will investigate this alongside other similar reports.

DPD and EE. I wouldnt do this if i thought EE were taking it seriously, but they are just putting people into returns process taking up to 24 hours.
In terms of reporting to the Police, why report it? - Because a crime has taken place and looking at the number of incidents happening there is a serious issue that needs dealing with.

Hi all.
We’re aware of a small number of customers who have not received the equipment that they have ordered, across all networks. If you have had this experience with your delivery, I recommend speaking to our Mobile Care team who can raise this with the relevant department.
We will then speak to the courier company with any reports so they can be investigated and any appropriate action taken.
Thank you.
Chris
