Hi,

the way I remember it, EE owes me money (and not the other way around).

I got a monthly wireless broadband-plan, from EE (in Liverpool City Center) in the summer of 2017.

And after a few weeks, the sim-card stopped working.

And that wasn’t the only problem.

I really wanted a USB-dongle (like T-Mobile/EE sold, around 2011).

But they’d stopped selling these.

And instead I had to buy a router.

But the problem was that the router didn’t charge that well.

So sometimes it ran out of power.

And then I couldn’t use the internet, for a number of X hours.

And that’s not really an alternative to ADSL/regular broadband then, I think.

So I got a pay-as-you-go sim-card/router, from Three.

(Since I’m a Norwegian citizen, then I’m not in the electoral-register.

So it’s not easy getting monthly-plans in the UK (for Norwegian citizens).

Even before Brexit this was a problem).

So I just started buying pay-as-you-go-data/gigabytes at Tesco, etc.

For the Three-router.

And I got myself a flat in Tuebrook, in the autumn of 2017.

And the flat was unfurnished.

And I hadn’t brought any furniture etc. with me from Norway.

So I had a lot of other stuff to buy (for the flat).

So I just continued using the Three-router/sim-card/wireless broadband.

And when the EE sim-card stopped working, then I must have stopped the direct debit, by using eighter my RBS internet-bank og Barclays internet-bank.

But this was EE’s own foult, since their stuff didn’t work.

They made the sim-card stop working (the way I remember it).

And their router wasn’t good enough to do with charging (of the built-in battery).

So it was basically rubbish, I’d say.

(And it was also in a funny yellow colour.

So it looked like EE had used a lot of effort into this product.

But it didn’t work properly.

And also they shut down my sim-card, after a few weeks, even if I had gotten money from a property-sale in Norway, some weeks earlier, so it was plenty of money, on both my British bank-accounts)

So this I have to complain about.

CONTINUOUS PAYMENT AUTHORITY
If you have chosen to make regular card payments to us these will be made under a Continuous Payment Authority (CPA). A CPA authorises us to withdraw the agreed amount from your specified account on an agreed frequency. CPAs can be set up weekly, fortnightly, four weekly or monthly.

Payments taken from your card will appear on your bank account or card statement as ‘Lowell Portfolio I’. If we are unable to collect your payment, we will contact you to understand the reason why.

If you are paying on a four weekly or monthly arrangement, we will make one further attempt to take the full missed payment amount 14 days later.

We will not apply any fees and charges to your account as a result of a failed payment attempt.

You are able to cancel the CPA by contacting us or your payment service provider at any time up to close of business on the day before payment is due to be taken.
