ADDONS PURCHASE ERROR
We're working on fixing this page. In the meantime, find help at ee.co.uk/help

What happened?
Sorry, we were unable to complete your request right now. Please try again later.


I get this error when I try to check my addons or buy a new addon (Pay as you go SIM card).
It's the same via app (Android phone) and via browser on a laptop.
It worked fine before, I bought a 7 days roaming addon last week.
Any ideas how to fix?

Hi @StageSixBG,

I'm sorry to hear you're having problems purchasing an add-on via your account.

The error message indicates we're aware of the issue and the team are working on it.

If you need to purchase an add-on in the meantime, please get in touch with Customer Care.

Thanks

James

Hi,

I need to buy 7 days of roaming addon as soon as possible (currently in Germany...)
It still doesn't work via browser and app.
Is there any other way to buy that addon, maybe SMS?

When will this be fixed? Been in touch with Customer care and they cannot help.  

You should've been offered by text to buy a PAYG roaming add-on when you arrived in Germany.

Do you have an active pack? You can only get these add-ons when you have a pack as they are for using your pack allowances in the EU.

Hi,

Yes, I have an active subscription pack.
I used to pay for the roaming addon many times, never had problems before.
The problem is not solved yet, any ideas?

Hi @StageSixBG 

Thanks for coming back to us. 

Which add-on are you looking to purchase? 

Are you roaming or in the UK?

Hi,

I am trying to buy a 7 days roaming addon, currently in Germany.
Can I buy it with SMS or only via the app / browser?
