Thankyou Same. I've been with EE for years
I've been with EE for years..T Mobile before.
At end of contract I call them and always get a lower price
What price did you get on current contract deal.0 -
That's not a particularly good deal I am currently looking at Virgin and Lebara. I need free roaming in the EU. Also, Three and those piggybacking on them, don't have a strong signal in my area.luvchocolate said:

I wouldn't use them. I have just realised I am paying nearly full price on my kids' mobiles despite their compulsory contracts finishing last August. EE is ripping me off by still charging me virtually the full price, £28 per phone. A comparable SIM only deal is £10 per month. That amounts to over £350 overpayment in the last 10 months. Shocking way to treat customers. I've also just found out the reminder that their contracts were coming to an end, was sent to THEIR phones and being kids they of course didn't know the significance. I have complained to EE, but they don't seem to want to accept any responsibility. Of course, strictly speaking they havent done anything legally wrong, but other companies' contracts are not set up this way and EE know fine rightly this will catch people out. This is bad business practice and puts ALL responsibility on the customer to monitor the contract. Yes, I took my eye off the ball and legally EE don't have to to take responsibility, but that doesn't stop EE from acting in bad faith. Making your cutomers 'fair game' is bad business0

Hardly a rambling rant looking for back up. It's my experience and it's a warning to others. And you miss the point about what is legal rather than what is ethical business practice. I trust you won't have any issue with being shafted the next time you make a slight mistake.southsidergs said:

Also, there is clearly a widespread problem here as outlined in many online articles. Maybe try not being so intolerant and self righteous.southsidergs said:

Theres the word shafted again when you haven't been. I see you also went on the same rant 3 differenr times but as has been pointed out already you signed up to a contract for a set length of time & at the time of sign up you'll have been told what happens when it ends which is exactly what has happened, onus totally on you.MOgilby said:

FWIW as I read what I'm signing up to I have notes on when to get in touch with providers towards the end of the contract1
