Brand analysis

It’s been a positive three months for EE in Customer Effort, with the brand adding +2 to its Overall Effort Score – the first time the brand has seen growth here in over a year.

But it's not quite enough to re-take the top spot, which it lost to Vodafone in Q4 2024.

Looking at the pillars, EE added +1 to its scores in ‘Valuing the Customer’ and Knowledge & Expertise’.

Meanwhile, its scores for ‘Style of Communication’ and ‘Speed of Resolving Problems’ remain flat wave on wave. These should therefore be key areas of focus for the brand if it wishes to retain pole position in the Telecommunications in the UK table in 2025.
