@Sandra2826 : Have you tried texting PACK10 to 150?

What does texting AL to 150 from your no. fully report verbatim (it is free)?

Hi, I have had the same problem for the past 2 weeks. I have a £10 balance on my account, but am unable to buy the £10 pack.

When I go to this link https://add-on.ee.co.uk/text it says 403 Forbidden.

When I go this link: Buy a plan/ subscription link from EE app , it says: "Packs Error, this page is being fixed" . 

When I try buy by texting PACK10 to 150, it prompts me to reply YES, which I do. But then nothing happens. I've tried this several times and waited over a week since the first time, but the pack hasn't been loaded into my account. 

I went in to an EE store but all they did was text PACK10 to 150 on my phone, and as I've said, this doesn't work. 

I'm thinking of switching to a different service provider at this point. Not sure what else to do. Please help me out here.

@Evan16 : To not get the "403 Forbidden" don't use "https:" but "http:".
