NETWORK SPEC SPREADSHEET.

If someone was tricked into 3way calling EE and a scammer, EE would have no way of knowing it wasn't the customer. Only way I can think of, convoluted at that.
but can’t fraudsters already spoof their call from most UK banks and all mobile numbers anyway?

Suppose so, but then EE would be able to see the call was 'internal' too surely?
 
Our of sheer intrest, what is Three and O2's CRM named? Seems like they have rather ominous names 🤣
I believe O2 uses Hansen for their backend. E.g. SIM swaps, porting, network related stuff. Don't know if they use it for CRM though.
 
I don't think Vodafone do visual voicemail on Android, it's an iPhone-only feature. It's not available on my Voxi SIM, at least. It's a shame, it'd be a really useful thing, if only to delete the telemarketer and spam voicemails without having to waste time calling the voicemail number, listening to them for a few seconds and hitting delete.
iirc Only O2 offer Visual Voicemail on Pixel Devices.

On most Android devices!

It's not just Pixel, I did get VVM show up briefly a while ago on my POCO X3 Pro, and tbh I had given up on ever seeing it before that because not one person on any other carrier has ever said anything about the phone supporting visual voicemail. Turns out, the only thing that matters is that your phone app is up to date.
 
Asking for a friend? ;)
I’d have imagined that people used to trick EE into thinking the call was coming from the customer, but surely when you add someone to a 3way call the person being added (e.g EE customer service) sees the person adding thems caller ID, and not the other person in the call? Unless you could trick the target person to add EE to the call themselves, but this is still possible today no?

The “merge call” feature has only worked for me once on EE, all other times its failed, what’s the difference between merge call and 3way call?

Same thing.

Weird, I’ve only had it work once and all 3 numbers were EE, has never worked since
You used to have to call up ee and ask them to enable the "3-way-call-capability" on excalibur.
From what I've seen though they plainly say this isn't available anymore unless you're a business customer. (Do let me know if you call and they enable it on a consumer plan).
 
Oh yeah, forgot they existed lol. I don't know much about their network tho

Cor blimey, they ain't cheap. :rolleyes: 😊

Are there any speed caps on the unlimited plan?​

Yes, after you’ve used 650GB of data, speeds are limited to 3G data speeds.

At least they are honest about that, but what happens when 3G is no more? 😁

I don't think Smarty have anything to worry about. 😊

I don’t know if they do it still but it used to get cheaper the longer you were a customer.

They also used to have ‘smart signal’ which let you roam across the 4 MNOs but they withdrew the product.

They’re about to launch eSIM but it’s taking some time and they’re a B Corp.

One thing that supprised me to find out the other day was that Giffgaff is a b corp.
 
these B20 restrictions on EE networks does it just mean your stuck on B20 and cannot connect to the other B-Bands. But the NBands are ok? Because i actually got good connection speeds using only B20 so i should be ok if i got a B20 restricted sim?
