    EE is a company that is incapable of delivering the ISP service that it says it provides. Incredibly slow download speeds of little more than 1Mb/s make this broadband barely useable. I was mis-sold this contract! It's customer services department is also utterly incapable of doing anything about it. I would not have believed there could be an ISP in the UK, that could be allowed to trade and be this awful!!!!.
    My simple advice to you, if you are looking for acceptable reviews, with a mind to choosing a broadband provider, is DO NOT USE EE!!!!......Ever!!!

    EE broadband is sensationally lousy! Fantastically slow.....beyond belief. Not fit for the purpose. As good as unusable. Disgraceful customer services. Not interested in the customer only interested in money. Excuse on excuse but never an improvement. I absolutely cannot recommend this excuse for a broadband company to anyone at all!!!! The very moment the contract expires I am off to anyone but EE!!!!!!!!!

    Hi,
    I called EE customer service around 10 times and my issue has still not been solved. They owe me more than 200 pounds because I have been invoice wrongly. Each time I called, they apologized for the mistake BUT never send my money back.

    Dubious about switching to EE for fibre having read the reviews, but I couldn't be happier about my experience. We were kept updated every step of the way with texts, letters and emails. Full set-up instructions came with the router, plus a video link sent to my phone for additional help. Now it's set up we get the full 36GB speed that we were told we could get. I can't comment on customer service as we've had no reason to contact them. It's easy to leave negative reviews; if only everyone who had a good experience left a review it may be easier to get a true balanced review on all the broadband providers out there.

    This EE broadband is appalling. The download speeds are not what I was promised. They are not a bit slower they are completely slower. In fact the internet is almost unusable. The speed is in fact so slow that basic internet functions cannot be relied on. I am fatigued with the number of times, over the past 4 months, that I have complained to EE "Customer Services" about this. They promise to look into it but NOTHING IS DONE! EE is appalling. When the contract is finished I will go elsewhere, in fact anywhere to get away from this appalling Company.

    Been with EE Broadband for about 6 weeks now. The first 2 weeks were fine. I was getting similar speeds to my previous provider. I only changed because previous provider capped the upload speeds at 512Kbs (EE offer 1Mbs upload).

    Since then it's continually getting worse. My speed fluctuates between 2Mbs - 4Mbs. EE speed check said I should be getting 9.7Mbs. Indeed with my previous providers I was getting around 9.5Mbs (I was getting 11Mbs with O2 until Sky took them over). So what is the experience with this speed? Web pages stutter when scrolling, youtube videos default to SD instead of HD, online gaming is practically impossible as you will constantly freeze.

    Have tried to email my speed tests to EE but all their email addresses bounce. Try looking for a support email address on their website (Good luck with that!). Finally had enough and tried to call them yesterday. The lady on the other end seemed nice but in the middle of her saying she was going to test my line the phone just cut off. Tried calling back and apparently it's now out of hours.

    The only difference with my setup is EE as the ISP and the router they provided. Everything else (my line, computer, phone etc) are exactly the same. Had I known all of this I would never have changed. To cap it all off I'm paying £1.50 a month more for a connection that isn't fit for purpose.

    I AM NOT PREPARED TO GIVE ANY PART OF THIS SERVICE EVEN ONE STAR. It justifies minus ten stars. In my whole IT experience I have never known such bad download speeds that make using the internet impossible. Quite simply either EE are utterly inept....ergo.... they should not be selling an ISP package... OR.... they know exactly what they are doing and this is a fraud scam. They deliberately squeeze the Mbps downloads. There is no third way. No one can receive the amount of complaints for this garbage and not be able to do anything about it. EE is a SCAM!!!!

    The most ignorant useless company ever! They’re using a 3rd company openresch sent engineer to my house teicr now still could install the broadband.. inbetween there wa ssuppose to be a specialist coming but because of their miscommunication that did not happen. They then sent the engineer again to my address?? But without the specialist coming the engineer can’t do nothing ... however looks like its nothing new as engineer called me before buzzing up as he read the notes and told me there is no point in him coming as from the records he can see the specialist has not been in yet, and also the engineer was not suprised that they did this as its a common thing! AVOID AVOID AVOID openreach and EE are rubbish! I wanted the broadband for the world cup but because of their mistake and it taking them so long worldcups finishing. Im not gettinng the broadband no more! England have better chance coming hone with the workd cup than EE installing my broadband on time! The most useless company ever!!!

    Arguably the most horrendous WIFI I have ever used. Constantly disconnects, cannot support more than one large device such as an Xbox or TV, and has ridiculously low download speeds. Said they would send someone out within 48 hours and it's been a week and no one has done anything about it, worst customer service I've ever seen regarding the problems being fixed. Would have rated everything with 0 stars if it was physically possible.

    I have had some bad broadband in my time but nothing compares to this. Almost all the time it takes forever to download emails. No chance of downloading a complex site and as for videos then just forget it. Yes! It is That Bad!!! No responce from their excuse for a customer service department. Just so bad. Just a scam. It is like going to a petrol station,filling up with and paying for 10 gallons of fuel, only to find that you actually have half a pint.
    DO NOT GO TO EE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Do not sign up to EE broadband. It is ridiculously slow and a lot of the time doesn't work. They do not have engineers because no matter how may complaints you make it is never fixed. Half way through the fixed term contract they increase the price. So price hike that was promised not to happen, seriously slow downloads that was promised not to happen, no repairs from the company that was promised not to happen. No No No ....do not got to EE.

    I thought I would add my review of this totally joke of a broadband package. Just had a mid contract price hike on my "fixed for 18 months" contract. BAD, BAD badly slow download speeds render ee broadband all but useless. No point ringing customer service as there is no service. Cannot understand how anyone can think this is good broadband.

    had the 30 pound fibre installed as I need fast and reliable internet.

    since installation I have been getting pings in excess of 1000 m/s when it should be less than 10. This means high levels of lag and dropping of connection.

    Speeds have averaged at 10 mb/s when I should get up to 38, and a MINIMUM level of 23.

    EE try to deny any claim of bad service by quoting a speed test they do in the middle of the night that is slightly above the lower limit. Very strange.

    Refused that there was an issue until I said that I can e-mail them evidence of the poor connection.

    Then after the phone call with the rude customer service person, I was kicked off the internet completely. Certainly looks like a retaliation by the EE staff.

    DON'T BUY EE

    We bought an 18 month deal up front at the same speed as our previous broadband deal (~20MB), which is perfect for us as 2 people living in a small flat, only using the internet for streaming SD videos. The speed is abysmal since we switched, and regularly drops to below 1MB. EE have tried to fix this my playing around with our router settings remotely, but we really haven't been happy with the service at all! It just keeps happening, and we cant even load the speed test website sometimes, let alone watch videos! On top of this, they raised the charge by £2 a month a few months after we joined, when we thought we were getting a fixed price deal by paying for 18 months up front. Really disappointed!

    I have never known broadband so bad and so slow. Most of the time I cannot use it because I do not have the time to wait for the simplest thing to download. My Amazon Firestick, which worked great with SKY, just cannot download a single video properly. I have complained so many times to EE but nothing improves and I also have had a price increase mid term contract to add insult to injury. What a garbage company!!!

    If you want good broadband then keep away from EE because this broadband is about the worst there is. Dead slow. Buffering all the time. Save your time and go elsewhere. Do not believe what they promise it will not happen. GARBAGE!!!!

    This ee broadband is very slow. Ocassionally it is impossible to log on at all. The slow speed is a real issue because it prevents me from being able to use my internet and this happen most of the time. I was promised around 55 megabites but I am only getting 1.2. That is a massive difference. I have complained so many times but it is never fixed. Basically this is fraud. I cannot recommend EE to anybody. The moment the contract expires I am off to another provider. Frankly, I will never, ever go to EE again!

    I cannot understand how this organisation has not been prosecuted and why it is still in business. This EE Broadband is just the worst that I have ever known. There is no way to watch any kind of video and the download speed is almost stationary. My best advice is KEEP AWAY FROM EE BROADBAND!!!

    EE broadband is so bad it beggars belief. Hard to log on to, impossible to stream due to the slowness, even rudimentary tasks cannot be performed because EE broadband does not provide the necessary speed. Approx 1.2Mbps is what I am getting. Appauling! Customer care????....what a joke. Mis-sold, mis-represented...MIS-TAKE!!!!!
