This article explains how we’re so confident that EE Broadband won’t let you down, that if your broadband falls below the guaranteed speed and we can't fix it in 30 days, you can leave with no penalty fees.

Check your guaranteed speeds

Test your internet speed

  1. Open the EE app.
  2. Select Manage.

You might need to switch off any devices that use a lot of data, like your TV.

Need to know

Speed Guarantee

Your broadband comes with your own personal Speed Guarantee, which guarantees the speed to your hub.

You can check your speed using the steps above.

If it's not what we promised, let us know. If we can't fix it within 30 days, you can choose to leave with no penalty fees.

What you can and can’t claim for

You can claim for anything that is entirely within our control, either on our network or the Smart Hubs, or if we can’t meet the speeds, we guaranteed you as part of your package.

You will have to complete all the fault checks before you can claim.

The Speed Guarantee doesn’t cover anything you’re responsible for, including damage to BT equipment, or faults with home wiring or if your hub is placed in a part of your home that impacts WiFi signal strength.

Don’t forget that something in your home might be interfering with your speeds.

Not meeting speeds

We’re part of Ofcom's Voluntary Code of Practice on Broadband Speeds. That means if we don’t fulfil your Speed Guarantee, you can choose to exit your contract without paying a charge for cancelling it early.   

We recommend looking at our tips to improve your speed.

Getting support if your speed test is under 100mbps

  1. If your speed test is under 100 Mbps and your Smart Hub Pro and Smart WiFi Pro devices are set up correctly, then call us on 150.
  2. EE phone agents will run a diagnostics check and will send you an additional Smart WiFi Pro device, to extend your WiFi connection to harder-to-reach areas of your house.
  3. If you find you’re still not getting 100 Mbps, then, we may send out a final Smart WiFi Pro device.
  4. Alternatively, we will send out an In-Home engineer, who will run an in person diagnostic test. We'll contact you to arrange an engineer visit, if we need access to your home.
  5. If the engineer has visited and you still can’t get 100 Mbps of WiFi speed in every room, then we'll credit you £100 on your next bill. You can only claim this offer once.
