Hi there.
Just placed an order for a pay monthly phone with EE, got to payment screen the upfront cost has been taken from my bank but then I got a thanks for your order screen and it said 'please call us to discuss we need to confirm a few details'
For anyone with experience of having thjs message what does it mean? Has the credit check passed initially? As the upfront cost has been taken from my bank?
I suffer with anxiety so phoning is not a great option for me is there a sales live chat team that can check this?
I don't get why they'd take upfront payment if I haven't been accepted?
Anyone who's had this message could you inform us what the issues were that needed to be discussed? Was it something small or not passing a credit check?
I don't really want to phone and be told I've failed the check as it's a bit embarrassing and I already suffer with bad anxiety.
Kind regards

@Elle67 : If you've been told to call EE about your order, your order won't progress until you do. So don't do anything & your order will be cancelled.

I'm guessing the credit check was done through the app or online then? Thanks 🙂

Morning @Skylar8392
Thanks for posting 🙂
Did you need some help with an order you have placed? Or, are you looking to place an order and would like some information?
Thanks.
Leanne.
