Nick Lane, MD Sales & Service Operations
EE continues to deliver strong service to our customers and we’re focusing on helping our customers faster than ever before. When customers do have a problem, we’re making it easier to speak to us and resolving complaints first time as seen the recent annual Ofcom Service report.
We will continue to focus on delivering personal, brilliant service to our customers.
Contact centres
When you speak to us, we want you to leave with your query resolved and a smile on your face. Which is why we're getting personal in our contact centres.
We'll answer your calls in the centre closest to your home, so you can chat last night's score with a local fan whilst getting your broadband set up.
Our customer-focused teams go above and beyond every day to give you the help you need. So, whether you’re speaking to the Tech Gurus or the Connection Crew, we’ll do everything we can to keep you connected.
Whether you call us about the latest smartphones or about your mobile bill, our Mobile Customer Care team will help you as quickly as possible.
From EE TV to taking your EE Broadband with you when you move house, our Home Support Team are working to provide you with the best possible support.
Our broadband customer service has been on a meteoric rise.
Independent research company Dynata conduct customer satisfaction surveys across the UK. When they asked how satisfied customers are with the quality of service offered by their broadband providers' contact centres, the results showed EE are #1 in the market… and we plan to keep it that way.
Our industry average is based on Ofcom’s Quality Service Comparison
Online
From the data usage checker on the EE app, to swapping tips in the EE Community, we’ve got online support sorted.
We've made it easier for our customers to open and engage with EE, directly from their home screen.
We now offer 3D touch for iPhone users, meaning customers now just need to press a little harder on the app icon and we’ll present them with a menu of options that, once clicked on, drops them into the appropriate place in the app.

We're investing in the load speed so that you can open what you want as quickly as possible.
We’ve made our help videos on the EE YouTube site more relevant and helpful for you.
In store
We’re continuing to add to our retail family – sometimes you just want to speak to somebody face to face.
We want to make sure that we’re helping customers as soon as they step into one of our stores, but that isn’t always possible on a busy Saturday afternoon in the town centre – which is why we’ve introduced a new appointment booking service.
Book online the night before, or in store on the day, so that you can spend more time doing the things you love and less time queuing.
