EE Half Price Sim with Broadband deal

saitorama

Hi there,

I recently got a new sim card contract with EE for £15/month, would have been £35/month but at the same time I took BT's broadband at £30/month which gave me the £20/month discount on sim contract.

The EE sim gives me apple music as a perk so is great value to me.

My current internet provider is TalkTalk and they just called me to ask about why I'm leaving, and they told me that they could offer me £21/month to stay, with a free gift also (such as Kindle). They told me that because my internet service will be with BT, I will be able to cancel my internet contract within the 14 day cooling off period, and that the EE sim deal will remain valid.

This is surprising to me, and i'm not sure how to go about checking. 

Does anyone have any advice?

I would suggest that either the sales agent at TalkTalk:

1. has in depth knowledge of the terms and conditions of all their competitors offers, and is aware of a loophole in EE's offer or
2. just made up any old tosh to get a sale.

It could be a loophole, they do exist - but the only way to be sure of that for yourself is to read the small (usually tiny) print in the EE contract to see if it says anything at all about being conditional on you staying with BT broadband once the EE mobile contract has started.

PHK

Looking on the EE website under the BT deal, it states that the discount ends if you cancel your broadband.

thank you all for your advice, i also called EE to ask them directly and they said the discount would be removed so looks like you are all right. BT it is!
