Complaints procedure

From first call to CISAS in five steps

Follow the steps in order. Every step generates evidence you can use at the next one. Do not skip step 4, the deadlock letter is what unlocks the free, binding CISAS route.

1

Open a complaint with EE

Call 150 or 0800 079 0099, use the MyEE app live chat, or write to EE Customer Services, 6 Camden Lock Place, London NW1 8AL. EE issues a complaint reference number, this is your audit trail.

2

Ask for written confirmation

After any phone call, ask the agent to email a summary of what was agreed and the timescale for resolution. Save it.

3

Escalate inside EE

If the first agent cannot resolve it, ask to speak to a manager or the dedicated EE Complaints Team. By Ofcom rules, EE must respond substantively to a written complaint within a reasonable period.

4

Request a deadlock letter

If 8 weeks have passed or EE has formally said it cannot do more, ask for a deadlock letter. That letter is what you need to escalate outside EE.

5

Escalate to CISAS

Submit the deadlock letter and your evidence to CISAS, the free, independent alternative-dispute-resolution scheme for EE. CISAS rulings are binding on EE but not on you.

FAQ

EE customer service, your questions answered

Why is EE in the Ofcom worst-three bracket?

In Q4 2025 EE received 10 broadband complaints per 100,000 customers, the highest in the table, tied with TalkTalk and Vodafone. Most complaints relate to faults, billing and service problems on the freshly relaunched EE broadband product. EE’s mobile arm is rated much better by customers, but Ofcom counts broadband and mobile complaints separately and only the broadband figure puts EE in the worst bracket.

How do I get through to a human at EE faster?

Three tricks that consistently work. One: call from your EE mobile by dialling 150, the system recognises you and skips the verification questions. Two: at the menu, say "complaint" or "cancel" rather than "billing" or "faults", those queues are usually shorter. Three: call early on a weekday (08:00 to 09:30) or late on Sunday (16:00 to 18:00), when call volume is lowest. Average wait time in 2026 is around three minutes.

What is the MyEE app good for?

MyEE handles most non-urgent self-service: view and pay bills, change tariff or add-ons, request a PAC code, start a fault diagnosis, track an order. It is one of the better-rated UK telecom apps. The one thing it does not do is final cancellation, broadband and TV cancellations still require a phone call.

Can I complain in writing to EE?

Yes, send a letter to EE Customer Services, 6 Camden Lock Place, London NW1 8AL. Quote your account number, the issue and the resolution you want. A written complaint is the right format if you plan to escalate to CISAS later, because it produces a paper trail that is hard to dispute. EE must acknowledge a written complaint within a reasonable period and respond substantively.

Is EE’s live chat any good?

Mixed. It is available 24/7 inside the MyEE app and on ee.co.uk, but the first 5 to 10 messages are usually a chat-bot. Once you reach a human, the quality is comparable to the phone line, fine for billing, weaker on complex faults. It is the right channel for "what is my contract end date" or "change my add-on" but the wrong channel for "broadband is intermittent and I want a fix".

When can I escalate to the ombudsman?

You can escalate to CISAS (the Communications and Internet Services Adjudication Scheme) 8 weeks after you first raised a written complaint with EE, or sooner if EE has issued you a deadlock letter. CISAS is free for you and binding on EE. You do not need a solicitor and you submit everything online.
