CABOT CIRCUS EE shocking bad experience …


I had a terrible experience with Samsung repair at EE. From the very first minute, the female advisor was rude and not involved to help. When I questioned the repair cost, she rudely disregarded the original quote provided by Samsung Repair and called her team leader, who was even more unprofessional. He aggressively interrupted me while I was talking in polite way, he used different tactics to reject my appointment and even lied about an additional repair to my screen replacement, claiming that the back surface would cost £20, something that was completely untrue, as the actual price was much lower on their website.

The estimated repair time for a screen replacement at this shop is around two hours. I hoped to have my phone until the end of the day. However, the team leader flat-out refused to check with the technician and insisted it would take 2 hours or maybe several days. Even after I explained that I had driven 40 miles to get the repair done on the same day, he sarcastically said he wouldn’t do me the "favour" of even asking. His attitude was dismissive, unhelpful, and outright disrespectful.

To make matters worse, as I was leaving, I overheard the staff laughing at me behind my back. This kind of behaviour is completely unacceptable for anyone working in customer service. I strongly advise others to avoid this place if they value honesty, professionalism, and basic respect

Condescending looks and body language outrageous they are employed to serve the public will never visit the Edmonton Green store again.

Dreadful

Surly, negative, unhelpful, ageist, ignorant and uninformative. Never answer the phone and huge queues when you turn up. Horrible experience with uncaring, untrained and utterly uninterested people.

Friendly professional staff


I would like to extend my gratitude to Abdul at the Trafford Centre EE store for the exceptional service he provided. Abdul was incredibly professional, friendly, and approachable throughout the process of helping me with my broadband needs. He took the time to thoroughly explain everything in a way that was easy to understand, ensuring I felt confident with the decisions I was making. His patience and clarity made the experience smooth and stress-free. Employees like Abdul truly elevate customer service standards, and I highly recommend him to anyone needing assistance. Thank you, Abdul, for your outstanding support!

If I could give 0 I would

I purchased a TV on the black Friday sale, like many TV shops, they offer quick delivery. The website claims 3 day delivery. But not timed.

The price was too good so I purchased the TV for an upcoming family event, it would've been nice to have it up for.

That was 2 weeks ago, I still have no TV. The customer service is only on email and the take 24+ hours to respond.
I'm certain the people responding were trying to troll me.

Hands down the most stressful customer experience I've ever had.

If you can...please purchase at any other replace. They are absolute cow boys here. Shocking for such a huge company.

My locally electronics store can even do timed delivery wtf.

EE will only deal with your issue when you contact PayPal with a dispute at that point PayPal step in and delay the purchase fees. So EE will only step up to the plate when they are losing/lost money, they don't care if your gear works or not. Always buy with a CC or PayPal. EE are useless.

EE'k !!!!

EE'k ! I had to create an EE account in order to buy a VR headset, which included giving personal info. Then, got sent an email day later from spurious email address pertaining to be from EE, asking for copy of passport, driving licence or utility bill to proceed with payment. So spent that day and night worrying and stressing over whether I had been scammed. Couldn't ring or email or contact EE store in any way! So cancelled. Nightmare!

Everyone helpful

I have always found everyone who works in the shop to be extremely helpful with a very good knowledge base.
This was particularly so when having to switch from BT to EE and a mistake was made by BT with a SIM card.It took several days to be sorted but each time I had to revisit the shop I was greeted with smiles and help, even though it wasn’t their fault that the mistake was made.

Go to any other problem related to the…

Go to any other problem related to the subscription, etc. and the EE employees make you certain offers and insist until you accept and fall into their trap. They are made to do this because many of the people are vulnerable, have certain health problems and for small offers that these charlatans know how to describe, some of us accept and later realize that it is just a scam. They don't take into account that you already have two subscriptions and make you some fake offers just to increase their profit. When my EE contract expires I will consider Vodafone. They are much more fair and possibly less charlatans. I read who was EE in the past and it has a bad reputation. A character from the past who bought EE sold the personal data of many EE customers to the Metropolitan Police. Because of this, the past reputation of EE cannot be changed and I find that because of this, EE employees have such behavior with customers.

I would give a zero if I had the chance I went into the ee store in Chelmsford the advisors would not acknowledge me no customer service and I went into this store three times for advice about a mobile device. The advisor I had was called Lewis he was very rude and didn’t speak much or advise me about anything it was just silent the whole time. It was very awkward. I wouldn’t recommend this store or the colleagues in here they are not friendly at all.

Bullies .. it gives them a power fix


I’ve been a loyal customer for 40 years .. And I needed to make an International transaction .. which they stopped for no real reason .. and have blocked my account .. the transaction is now not required because I had no alternative but to go elsewhere.. they won’t release my account because they enjoy the power fix of being BULLY BOYS

EE is the worse network you can ever think of using… I made an order online for the new iphone, the next day I got an email that it’s been cancelled without any reason.. I called them multiple times and not one single person had any idea what they were saying… The service is very frustrating. Please don’t ever use EE if you value your peace of mind.

Rip Off!…

Took sons phone in for an appointment today - sat down & first thing I was is it was prob going to cost me around £200!- they didn’t even know if it was just a problem with the battery and was advised to upgrade 😡

Walked up the Rd to Foneworld took phone in & it was the charging port - sorted in 15 mins and charged £30- I am disgusted with EE - my son is disabled and I am his carer so can’t work .He relies heavily on his phone as he can’t get out , so to have a diagnostic estimate of that price is shameful- shop around -or walk a few yards up the rd .

Waited in doorway for 10 minutes with no help offered said to my wife I had noticed some staff who had finished advising customers disappear through rear door if store! We were then told to stop being rude by one of the staff who had overheard us!
My wife after a thirty minute wait went to find out why we hadn’t at least been asked to take a seat and told someone will be with you in such and such a time.
We have been customers for many years and never been treated like that!!
