Hi I’ve had a text from 1122 offering me double data for free as I’m a bt and ee customer. This would be very helpful - but is it a scam

Seen lots posting this seems EE does not answer this type of question

Good morning @Ray00

I can confirm the text from this number has came from EE. 

Terms for the offer can be found below:

Double Data for eligible BT Broadband customers who have an eligible EE Mobile plan. Double Data for all the numbers registered to the same EE account. Account holders must be the same on both the EE and BT accounts and registered to the same address. Double Data will be removed if you no longer have the eligible products from both BT & EE. Double Data on core data allowance only. No cash alternative. May take up to 24 hours to activate.

Hi thanks for your reply,

But as you are not an employee answering for EE. this does not confirm that its not a scam.

Would need a confirmation from an official from EE,,

As EE dont bother helping customers I am thinking about  returning   to BT mobile, if not I will be looking at alternative providers,,

BT were available on phone helpline, and you could contact a human,,,  

   I waited about half an hour  on hold with EE and gave up, the recorded message tried to fob me off with text help

But I would like to thanks you for replying to my post

It's good to see people willing to help others even though the results are not official

Many Thanks  Katie
