If you're using a PAYG SIM you need to be with them for at least 3 months before you're eligible.

No you can't, you have to have been a customer for 3 months.

No, you can't. It's explained in post 1 and the link.

From the original link:

Quote:
“EE Power will be available to all active customers on mobile and broadband plans on a 30 day, 12, 18 or 24 month plan”

So no, you can't get a free SIM, as it's not open to PAYG customers, only contract.

It costs a tenner. On bulk buy it probably cost them a fiver. Hardly earth shaking stuff unless it can be used for urm...that purpose

PAYG customers can get one (as can non-EE people who pay)

Amazing how many people have apparently misunderstood this thread and the link.

I wonder if those on legacy branded T-Mobile and Orange contracts qualify ?

PAYG customers are eligible after being with EE for 3 months.

Looks like a re-branded Anker power bank.

Contains one single 18650 battery, but likely of decent quality and certainly 2600mah.

A 3500mah battery inside would be nicer but the non fakes(most are fakes on ebay) cost double.

It's worth getting if you're already with EE, on the basis that you shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth. However it's not something that would influence me to join. Genuine Ankers are cheap on Amazon - one double the capacity only costs 15. I have this

http://www.amazon.co.uk/10000mAh-Por.../dp/B0063AAIRG

Even with with a notoriously power-hungry S3 using maps and GPS constantly I usually don't have to recharge the Anker every day, so the fact that the EE one can be instantly swapped would be of no benefit unless I forgot to recharge. The larger Anker has the benefit of two charging ports - and no, it really isn't that heavy or unwieldy. I barely notice it.

I've figured out I can get 5 or 6, that should get me through the day

Just had a thought.
What about sharing users like my two Daughters.
Can they get one each too I wonder?
Technically that are on 1 month rolling contracts I think.
Or are they 12 months, I can't remember.

OK, spill. Or were you simply making (a very funny) joke?

What about if you have a sim only and seperate broadband with EE. Would you receive one or two?

So how do you tell a genuine 18650 battery or where to get one if ebay are all fakes?

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 .
