What should I do if my device is faulty?
Sometimes your device may stop working as a result of an internal fault. This could be related, but not limited, to a number of different causes such as; a software update which has not installed correctly; out-of-date software; defects with the external and/or internal parts including a malfunctioning battery.
Unsure what has caused the device fault?

Manufacturer Warranty
If, at the end of the diagnostics, we cannot resolve your fault you will be given instructions on how you can have your device repaired under warranty.
To find out if you are in warranty on your device, you can check your device packaging and the information that came with it.
If you're unable to find it:
- call 150 from your EE phone
- call 07953 966 250 from any other phone
- pop into a store and ask one of our advisors
Please note: If your device is less than 30 days old and you think it could have a fault, you may be eligible for a new replacement device, free of charge.
If you are outside of your warranty period, we offer a chargeable repair to get you back up and running as soon as possible.
Extra Benefits
If you are unsure what insurance product you have, visit your My EE account to check your confirmation of insurance cover, view your policy information, terms and conditions and your Airtime Plan bill.
Full Cover and Damage Cover Customers
Full Cover and Damage Cover include a number of non-insurance benefits.
You are entitled to a next-day replacement should your registered device be diagnosed with a fault during the first 24 months of its life.
For a £50 fee, we will arrange for a courier to visit you to exchange the faulty device for a refurbished replacement. This fee will be added to your next Airtime Plan bill. This service is not available to SIM Only customers or to Apple customers within the first 12 months of your Airtime Plan contract.
If we have collected and replaced your device and discover the old device was not faulty (e.g. if it has been damaged), we may charge you for the cost of the replacement device and may remove the Full Cover or Damage Cover from your Airtime Plan contract.
Should your device breakdown once the manufacturer warranty has expired, you will be covered under your insurance for the life of your policy.
Apple Technical Support will assess your fault. If they are unable to get your device back up and running again, they will discuss available options which include:
- Apple Express Replacement Service
- Mail in your device for a repair or replacement
- Visit an Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider for a repair or replacement
You could have your device replaced the next day via the Apple Express Replacement Service.

If you choose to visit an Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider, you will not need to make a claim on your policy first.

What should I do if my device is lost or stolen?
Safeguard your device
If you have lost your device or your device has been stolen, you need to bar and blacklist your device to make sure that it can’t be used on any network within the UK if it’s found. That way you won’t be billed for any data or voice use on your missing device.
Don’t worry, blacklisting is reversible; if you do find it, you can reactivate it again.
To bar and blacklist your device:
- call 150 from your EE phone
- or call 07953 966 250 from any other phone
Get a replacement device
If you have insurance with EE, we recommend you contact us immediately to make a claim:
- call 150 from your EE phone
- or call 07953 966 250 from any other phone
> Find out more on how to make a claim
If your device has been stolen, please contact your local police to report the theft. Remember that, unless it’s an emergency, it’s usually best to call 101 rather than 999. You'll be charged to call 101. You need to report it so you can get a Crime Reference Number (CRN), which you will need to make a claim.
If the theft happened abroad, you will need to report it to the local police.
If, after you make a claim, you or the police recover your device, it becomes property of the insurer and you will need to return it to EE.
If you do not have insurance, it is still vital that you contact us immediately to safeguard your device and protect you from any unwanted activity on your account which could be charged to your airtime bill.
Some devices use location services which could be used to locate your device, for example Apple devices have the Find My feature.
Find My
If you have lost an Apple device, you can try using Apple’s Find My tool to locate your device. We strongly recommend that you do this:
- log in to iCloud with your Apple ID
- select the Find My icon
- where it says All Devices, select the device that’s missing
- the location will show the last known location of the missing device, and let you know if it has battery
- from here you can choose to do a number of actions, such as playing a sound, setting to lost mode, erasing data or tracking where your device has been
- if your device does not have any battery left, you can set it to lost mode and request a found notification
Extended Warranty for Apple Products
If you are an Apple customer and have Extended Warranty:
- take your device to an EE store and ask one of our advisors
- call 150 from your EE phone
- or call 07953 966 250 from any other phone
We will then repair it. If we can’t fix it, we will replace it with a refurbished device.
