@Andrew273 : On PAYG you can't control Content Lock from your MyEE. Instead you need to call EE with a credit card handy & pay a refundable token amount to prove you are over 18. Alternatively you can visit an EE store with some photo ID.

If you think I helped please feel free to hit the "Thumbs Up" button below.

To phone EE CS: Dial Freephone +44 800 079 8586 - Option 1 for Mobile Phone & Mobile Broadband or Option 2 for Home Broadband & Home Phone

How do I unlock my content 18+

Hi @Adwalch

For pay as you go customers you can remove content lock by either giving us a call or visiting your local EE Store with photo ID.

I was told by EE staff inside the Walthmstow store they do not offer the unlocking service in store and i must do it over the phone or online

When I called to unlock the automated voice said my New Zealand credit card wouldn't be accepted.

I'm sorry to hear you were incorrectly advised in store, @Kylecallanan 

As long as you visit with your photo ID, any EE store can update your content lock settings for you.

I have taken a picture of this message so i can show them if they refuse this service next time i go into the store.

Many thanks
