EE’s Free Data Offerings for Key Workers and Prepaid Customers

Recently, EE has confirmed that it is extending its popular free unlimited data offering for key workers, with the scheme now available until June. This update comes as a welcome change for customers, offering both value and convenience.

EE’s Free Data Offerings: A Closer Look

While EE has reaffirmed its commitment to key workers, it's important to clarify what is meant by “free” data. According to EE, customers can extend their data through specific enterprising methods rather than outright giving away unlimited data. This means that if you consider “getting free stuff without spending any money” as a form of “free,” then technically, no, they are not giving out free data. However, EE has a dedicated loyalty program for prepay customers called “Free Boosts,” which offers a unique and valuable incentive.

The EE Free Boosts Program

Prepay customers can enroll in EE's “Free Boosts” program, which is particularly beneficial. By purchasing one of their 30-day prepay packs, such as the one mentioned above, customers can gain additional perks. Every three packs bought, a user can claim a boost, either more calling minutes or an extra 500MB of data, per pack. This boost increases the pack’s data permanently as long as the subscription continues. An example using a 5GB pack would mean that after 12 months, the customer would be receiving 7GB instead of the initial 5GB.

EE further enhances this program by stating there is no theoretical limit to the number of boosts a customer can receive. This means with consistent purchasing habits, customers can continually benefit from added data, providing a significant advantage in terms of data usage and cost savings.

Exclusive Data Benefits for EE Customers

EE offers even more perks to its customers by providing extra data allowances when additional services are subscribed to. For those who have recently ordered home broadband, EE has announced an additional 5GB of data per month. This offer applies to one of two lines, making a total of 10GB of extra data each month, which is a substantial bonus for those who are already enjoying EE’s services.

Through these incentives, EE is not only rewarding its loyal customers but also encouraging further business and subscription activities, which in turn benefits the company’s overall customer retention strategy.

Conclusion

In summary, while EE is not providing free data outright, it offers valuable and significant perks through its prepay customer program, the “Free Boosts,” and additional data allowances for subscribing to multiple services. Whether treated as free or a valuable perk, these offerings serve as a strong incentive for EE’s customers to remain subscribed and loyal.
