Been trying to contact EE store to get a quote and book in a repair of my phone. It is a google phone and they recommend EE as an approved repairer. The phone gives you options, then cuts you off. Have tried a few stores and the same issues. Anyone know what is wrong?
Solved! See the answer below or view the solution in context.

@anitamullins The staff at the store can only answer the phone if they are free to answer. If they are dealing with customers they can not answer the phone. The device has to be sent off to be looked at before you’ll get a price to fix it they don’t repair in stores. Best just to go to a store to start the repair process.

If you book a slot online, does that mean you are just booking for them to look at what the repair cost is then?
I am surprised the phones are not ever getting answered to be honest as often I have walked past the store and noone is busy!

Hi @S61073
Welcome to the Community
What's the reason that you need to pop into the EE store? Are you looking to get your handset repaired?

@S61073
Is this to unlock the handset so that it works with other network SIM cards, or is it to unlock a passcode?

Then it has a message on it with a code for when a smart watch version 7 is
delivered until then I'm stuck... The use of a mobile phone is a whole new
level for me and it takes me longer to process things cause I suffer with
ASD and unpredictable and irregular seizures...

It sounds like as you have a security lock on your phone, and they're suggesting a one-to-one session with a store guide who may be able to help you through the steps to unlock it.
The store themselves will be unable to unlock the security code, as this is a device/manufacturer feature, but they may be able to guide you how to do it.
What make / model is your phone?
By the way, we have a range of ways to support customers with additional needs. Have you had a chance to register your needs?
Have a look at Account support for vulnerable customers | EE for more information on how we can support you as well as the steps for you to take.
