It's a scam! There are many of these going the rounds. EE would never send you a msg asking you to click on a link in order to update your a/c.

Does it have a link in it that it tells you to click? Don't go there but what was the link?

Hi @Ricky471 

If your bill is up-to-date then yes it's likely a scam. They are very annoying.
