Some of the main benefits of EE are:
When deciding which mobile phone deal to choose, consider your needs, how you plan to use your phone and make sure you understand the details of the tariffs on offer. One option may stand out more than the next, so you can find the option that best suits your needs.
EE has mobile contracts for popular handsets such as Apple, Samsung, Motorola, Google, Huawei, Sony and many more.
Each contract plan will have a set number of minutes, data and texts that you can use each month. Some plans even have unlimited data or ‘swappable benefits’. These benefits give you free access to one or two of the following:
If you pick an EE smart plan you can upgrade at any time, as long as they’re more than 15 days into their new contract, the cost of this will depend on when you upgrade and what device you’re upgrading to.
The handset and amount of monthly allowances you choose can have a big influence on the monthly cost of the contract.
If you can afford the monthly payments and are happy to stick with the same phone for a while, an EE pay monthly handset could be the right choice for you.
However, if you’re looking for something more cost-effective, or if you’re happy with your current phone, take a look at EE sim-card-only deals or pay as you go.
EE has lots of SIM-only options lasting either 12 or 18 months, these plans are packed with minutes, texts and data but you don’t get a new phone included.
The cheapest SIM-only deals usually include unlimited minutes and texts. The most expensive deals offer 5G unlimited data, unlimited texts, unlimited minutes and 3 swappable benefits.
PAYG is a flexible contract-free deal where you need to ‘top-up' your phone with credit to use your allowance of texts, minutes and data.
For example, you top up your phone with £10 credit and you get a set amount of texts minutes and data for a month. Next month you might decide to top up by £5 instead, as you didn’t use up all your allowances from last month.
EE PAYG deals include:
It’s worth noting that Go Compare doesn't sell handsets, however they do SIM-only or pay as you go deals that you can pair with your new handset.
When searching for a new phone or tariff it’s worth taking your time and doing some research beforehand.
Like most companies, EE has different offers for both new and existing customers.
There are also monthly or quarterly promotions to watch out for, like the ‘Triple data deal’ on PAYG tariffs.
Think about the amount of calls, texts and data you need to get the most out of your tariff and avoid paying extra for boosters.
If you watch videos or play a lot of games on your smartphone then you might want to consider a deal that offers a lot of data.
If you do use the internet a lot, set up a data cap so that you don’t go over your limit and get charged extra.
