EE customers get one of the best upgrades in years but it does come with a warning
EE is making one of its biggest and most welcomed changes in years that should mean you never miss a WhatsApp message or email again. The UK network has just announced that all new or existing customers who upgrade their current plan will be treated to the firm’s ‘Stay Connected’ guarantee. This update means that anyone going over their monthly data allowance will still be able to connect to the web without needing to buy more access.
Now, for anyone who regularly runs out of data, it’s worth noting that this free internet boost won’t let you stream endless Netflix boxsets or download hours of music files on the move.
It’s been created to keep customers connected to emails and WhatsApp messages until their full allowance kicks in again at the start of a new month.
As EE explains, “the EE Stay Connected service automatically switches on once a customer has used their monthly data allowance and is fast enough for customers to send and receive data messages, check their emails on the go, and get where they need to with access to maps – helping them keep in touch.”
It’s a nice addition from EE as if you run out of data with just a couple of days left before your next allowance starts it should save you needing to buy expensive data add-ons.
EE says it will be available from 7th July across new Smart and Essential Pay Monthly handset plans and SIM-only plans,
