Hi everyone. On my account page, in the Do More section, I see te following information, stating I can use Apple Pay and other ways to top up. But when I follow the "Visit page" link, the only payment method I can see is by card. Where are all these apple pays and paypals? Does anywone see these in their account?

@Christopher_G : I can confirm that on the 'Visit page' link it only offers you to enter a bank card no. (Visa, Mastercard or Maestro).

Hi @sich 

I've had a chat with the relevant team who look after the payments through the EE website. They have confirmed that you can only top up with a card at the moment. I've fed back the information that you posted on the screenshot and they're going to look to update it.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Thank you, @Christopher_G ! I'd also add that the same situation is with Direct Debit payment approach described here: https://ee.co.uk/help/billing-payments/payment-methods/how-do-i-pay-my-phone-bill#article-title-2 . When I follow these instructions I can't see specified links to setup direct debit.

You can only set up a Direct Debit for a pay monthly contract, @sich. Is that what you're trying to do, or is this for your pay as you go account that you're trying to set up a monthly payment for?

I have a pay as you go account. But throughout the payment help I found no word about any limitations for certain payment approaches, like "these ones work only for contract custormers, and those ones work for everybody". In other words, there is lots of confusing information for me as a new EE user: some pages say I can pay using Apple Pay and Paypal, other say I can use direct debit, and while I'm looking for best approach for me to pay, I can't find any of these. I wish the help pages would be more...helpful 🙂
