Brand analysis

EE is in bronze position in this wave’s Telecommunications in the UK table.

Back in Q3 2024, EE was joint first with Vodafone. It’s not that its Overall Effort Score has decreased since then – in fact it’s +1 above its score a year ago. It’s that competitors are building on their scores quicker, like Plusnet, which takes second this wave.

EE has increased its score by +1 in three of the Customer Effort Index’s component pillars – Style of Communication, Knowledge & Expertise and Valuing the Customer. Its Speed of Resolving Problems score hasn’t budged though, so this should be where the brand focuses to take back second in future.

With 40% of EE’s customers rating how easy it was to find the information they wanted on the website/app as 'good’, this could be one metric they attempt to build on.
