It is! It's obviously a scam! The link in it is not even to EE (domain ee.co.uk).

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 access your a/c.

Received the same text from a different number today. They are probably masking their number. People should not click on the link, they will scrape any data they can from your phone. 

The site looks very good but asks for to many details.

@ExtraE : Clicking the link will not do any scraping but answering personal details on the page it leads to will.
