The Finance Provider will take your upfront payment, confirm when the loan is activated and provide details for the customer portal registration. Please contact them if you have any queries in relation to the loan.

2. Creating an Order

  • You will have an opportunity to check and correct any errors in your order up until you submit your payment details.
  • To place an order, you will need to have a valid EE ID set up unless we state otherwise.
  • After submitting an order to us, we will give you an Order Reference Number and details of the products you have ordered. We will send the same details to you in an e-mail (our first e-mail). Please note that this email is an acknowledgement, not acceptance/confirmation of your order.
  • Alternatively, we may decline all or part of your order for any reason, in which case our second e-mail will tell you so.
  • Please note that products, prices and offers on this site, on our app, in our retail stores and through our contact centres may differ.
  • Finally, we will send you an e-mail confirming the dispatch of your order, at this point your order has been accepted/confirmed and fulfilled.
  • Before purchasing, you will have an opportunity to read our Privacy Policy. It describes how we may use your personal information.
  • The products these terms apply to are for consumers so we won’t provide a tax invoice or receipt for orders for them. By placing an order for products these terms apply to, you are confirming that you are not a VAT registered company using these products for business purposes.

3. Prices and Payment

  • All prices and charges in our order journeys are shown in UK pounds sterling. They include any VAT payable.
  • The total cost of your order will be the total price of the products and services you order plus the cost of delivery (if applicable), which will be set out in your order summary before you submit your payment details.
  • Prices, offers and products are subject to availability and may change before (but not after) we accept/confirm your order and dispatch it. If something becomes unavailable, we may offer you an alternative.
  • We try very hard to ensure that all information in our order journeys is accurate. If an error is discovered in the price of the goods that you have ordered or any other charges, we will inform you as soon as possible. In the event that you order an item and the price or any other charges shown in our order journeys is incorrect for any reason, we will contact you and cancel the order. We shall be under no obligation to fulfil an order for a product which was advertised at an incorrect price or with an incorrect charge.

4. Age Requirements

If you order a product with a minimum age requirement, by ordering you confirm that you are of the required age. Our couriers may require proof of age on delivery.

5. Delivery

  • Delivery times are calculated in working days - i.e. Monday to Friday inclusive excluding Bank holidays.
  • We have several delivery options (including Standard and Next day delivery), all options will be displayed at checkout. Delivery times may increase during busy periods, such as Christmas and during any sale periods. Please allow up to 28 days before reporting non-delivery of your purchase.
  • We do everything we can to meet the delivery times specified in the order journey. However, occasionally delivery times may be affected by factors beyond our control and therefore they cannot be guaranteed.
  • We cannot guarantee the use of any particular courier. If you order more than one product, they may dispatch from separate warehouses or may not be able to fit into one box. As a result, delivery may arrive in separate boxes, by different couriers and/or possibly on separate days.
  • If your order is being delivered by courier (excluding Royal Mail), we will send you an email with tracking details, so that you can track your order right to your door. The courier may also contact you with further details regarding delivery.
  • We will deliver the goods that you order to the delivery address you give when you place your order. Once an order is placed, you won't be able to change the delivery address. You can check the delivery address in the first email we send you. If you have given us an incorrect delivery address, please contact us as soon as possible as we may be able to help.
  • If there is no one available at your delivery address to accept the delivery when our courier arrives, the courier may either attempt delivery to a neighbour, attempt delivery to your delivery address again the next day, keep the goods for at least 5 days and in which you can contact them to re-deliver at any point, or deliver to a local post office for you to collect from. If the courier is unable to deliver the goods under one of these options, then the goods will be returned to the warehouse.
  • If you give us an incomplete delivery address and we are unable to deliver the goods, they will be returned to the warehouse.
  • Once the goods arrive back to the warehouse, they will be booked in for a refund and a refund will be made in accordance with Sub-Section 8 “Returns and Refunds” below and you will need to place a new order for the goods if you still want them.

6. Missing, Damaged or Incorrect Orders

  • We try very hard to ensure that you receive your order in pristine condition. If you do not receive all your products, please check whether they are being delivered separately and whether they have been dispatched.
  • Any images shown in the order journeys are for illustrative purposes only.
  • In the unlikely event that a product arrives damaged or is incorrect, please let us know as soon as possible. Items delivered damaged or with missing items must be reported to us within 14 days of delivery.

    items are dispatched).

    When you are paying by EE Finance, powered by Glow: the upfront
    payment for your item(s) will be taken when you place your order. The
    Finance Provider will contact you about your loan separately.
  • Please note that dispatch/delivery estimates for items that are on pre-order, recently launched or due back in stock can sometimes change. We will always keep you updated on the progress of your order.

First step

  • The first step (the “first step”) is that you will need to place an order for your Sky Stream Puck(s) through EE, acting as agent on behalf of Sky.
  • This will involve selecting the specific Sky TV products you want to order (i.e. a Sky Stream Puck with or without up to one additional Sky Stream Puck) and placing an order for them.
  • The Sky Stream Puck(s) are loaned by Sky to you at no extra cost but you will need to pay a one-off EE admin fee to EE for placing an order for Sky Stream Puck(s). This EE admin fee will be reserved on your payment account and appear as a pending payment when you place your order through EE as part of the first step but won’t be processed until your Sky Stream Puck(s) are dispatched by Sky after the second step is successfully completed.
  • EE is responsible for the processing of the order for the Sky Stream Puck(s) and taking the one-off EE admin fee only, and our terms in this “Section B - Sky TV Products Terms and Conditions” apply in relation to the order for the Sky Stream Puck(s) and payment of the admin fee only. Please contact us with any queries or issues regarding the order processing and/or admin fee.

  • We will contact you after the first step to let you know how to complete the second step directly with Sky.
  • Please note that any prices and any offers for Sky subscriptions shown by us in the first step are subject to availability at the time you order your Sky subscription(s) directly from Sky in the second step.
