    2 EE contract sims
    1 Orange OVP Virgin sim
    1 T-Mobile sim
    1 Dan and Phil sim (still will some credit on it)
    2 EE PAYG sims (the ones that came with £5 credit and 100MB a month data)

    So, actually 7 unique sims to get a code with :D.

    Someone's already said it's purely to EE customers and you have to be on contract. So you can get two and only two.

    Don't know where you think you saw that, but you are wrong. It's any EE customer, and any EE PAYG customer who has had a live sim for at least 3 months.

    You really shouldn't just believe what "someone's already said" without checking yourself ;).

    It was even mentioned in this thread if you didn't want to go and check the EE release yourself.
    If you're using a PAYG SIM you need to be with them for at least 3 months before you're eligible.

    That's probably because the scheme hasn't even launched yet.

    It even says on EE's website "When it's launched, customers will be able to text is for a code" (or words to that effect)...


    It will be launched on the 16th April, so you can send the text next week.

    OK, I thought I'd give EE five minutes into Thursday before sending the text, but no, they still think it's Wednesday. :(

    It's an 18 month contract and if you don't return it they will take a fiver from your account so not free

    http://ee.co.uk/content/dam/ee-help/Help-PDFs/EE%20Power_terms%20and%20conditions_300315.pdf

    When this agreement expires or terminates (for mobile or broadband customer this will happen automatically if you chose to cancel your agreement with us for mobile or broadband services), you must return the Power Bar to an EE store within 60 days. If you don’t you’ll have to pay a charge to compensate us for replacing the Power Bar. Currently this is £5. For mobile and broadband customers, this will be applied to your bill. If you’re not an existing customer, we’ll contact you using the information supplied to us when you joined EE Power and we’ll issue a bill for the cost of replacing the Power Bar that has not been returned

    It'll only be a contract if they make me aware of the terms and I agree to them.

    Interesting:
    A Power Bar is made available to you on a free to hire basis, under the terms of this
    agreement, for a maximum of 18 months. After 18 months, the Power Bar must be
    returned to EE and the Service will end.

    At the end of your initial 18 month hire period, you may be entitled to enter into a new
    hire agreement but we reserve our right to refuse any hire request that you make

    When this agreement expires or terminates (for mobile or broadband customer this will
    happen automatically if you chose to cancel your agreement with us for mobile or
    broadband services), you must return the Power Bar to an EE store within 60 days. If you
    don’t you’ll have to pay a charge to compensate us for replacing the Power Bar.
    Currently this is £5. For mobile and broadband customers, this will be applied to your
    bill. If you’re not an existing customer, we’ll contact you using the information supplied
    to us when you joined EE Power and we’ll issue a bill for the cost of replacing the Power
    Bar that has not been returned.

    2.8 The Power Bar remains our property, you are responsible for making sure that the
    Power Bar is kept in good working condition and used properly whilst in your care.
