PAYG Subscription Pack Misrepresentation

NiBB

EE advertise, both on their automated telephone response and on their website, that additional data will be provided to pay as you go subscription packs. For example, £20 pack has data allowance increased from 50 to 150GB. When you try to purchase after logging on this additional data is NOT provided. Anybody have any clue about this?

@NiBB    This isn’t a top up ie PACK  it’s a new sim/PAYG.   So it you want this you need to order a new PAYG sim.    

To contact EE Customer Services dial 150 From your EE mobile or 0800 956 6000 from any other phone.

As you see I've already tried it & it always offers me the extra 100 GB. Show me the screen that it doesn't.

You say you are logged into your a/c. What products are linked to your a/c?

As @Chris_B points out those adverts & on their online shop are for the purchase of brand-new PAYG SIMs that include extra data as part of the online promotion. You don't get extra data when just buying a pack on an existing SIM. You just continue buying packs with their normal allocations.
