    I sent the text for the power bar on the 17th April and I'm still waiting for the code.

    Is this normal?

    No.

    You'll probably have to resend and wait for the June codes now.

    Was a big queue in the EE shop at lunchtime. No way I was prepared to waste a lovely sunny lunch break standing in line for a charger. Hoping there are still some left tomorrow when I take a late lunch.

    This is just another money making ploy from EE, (as is their 50p 'jump the queue' charge) .
    I texted for this 'free' charger last week and heard nothing, no code, no response.
    On ringing today I was told I should have got a text saying they were out of stock until end of June!
    I hope to leave EE when my contract ends, so I will just have to pay their 35p cost of the text and learn from my mistakes
