Or join our virtual queues in store

You can still walk in to our EE stores when you want. We’ve set up a virtual queue system to help us see you safely.

When you’re in store, please wear a face mask and stick to social distancing guidelines. We’ll be doing the same. Plus you can still shop and upgrade online or by chat.


The network to keep you connected

The network to keep you connected
Our mobile network can comfortably support the extra calls that people are making to keep in touch with colleagues, friends and family. And if data usage does increase, we’ve got the capacity to handle that. We’ve also started extra monitoring on all areas across our network.

Our broadband network has a large amount of capacity to keep you connected at all times - even with the massive increase in homeworking that’s being experienced.


101 calls to the police now free

We no longer charge EE customers for calls to the 101 non-emergency police service.

Free 101 calls support the 999 emergency service – and help manage the impact caused by the coronavirus outbreak. We fully support the Home Office request for a free service, and we’ve taken action as quickly as possible.


How we can help you quickly

To keep everyone safe, our agents are currently working from home. Our lines are open as normal, but you may hear some background noise.

Delivery vans

Delivery with a difference

We’re continuing deliveries as normal with extremely good service levels right across our network. We’ll still send your order within 24 hours where possible, but some orders may take a little longer.

To avoid unnecessary contact, we’re no longer asking customers to sign our handheld units. Instead our drivers will sign it on their behalf. We’ll record the name of the person receiving delivery and a ‘Delivered on Authority’ message in the signature section of the unit.

You’ll still be able to fully track and trace your order for complete visibility of all your parcels.

Bills and payments

We recognise the financial impact that coronavirus is having across the UK, and our team will be able to help you with any concerns you have about your EE Business bill.
