Just been offered the deal for Ultd mins/text with 25GB data for £19 (RRP £37.99).
Asked for my PAC code a few days back, got a phone call back today with this deal allegedly available for all customers.
Can be instantly changed for those in a 30 days rolling contract with them or those nearing the end of their current 12 months contract.
If they become adament in no such deal then ask for your PAC code as you've found a better deal elsewhere and wait a few days for those in the retention team to call you back.

I phoned up last week to cancel my contract and they offered me 20GB for £19.99. Phoned back yesterday to take the offer however it didn't include EU texts or minutes so asked for my PAC number. They phoned back the same evening and offered me 25GB for £19.99 which includes EU text and minutes.

my contract is about to expire, i called and asked for PAC codes and they tried to offer me some shocking deals.
They would not match the 25gb offer or anywhere near it.
i will be switching to three, they are offering all you can eat data with 20gb hotspot for £20 a month.
Vodafone are offering 20gb with unlimited calls and text for £24.
looks to me like EE are far to overpriced and nowhere near competitive.

By asking for your PAC code, you're essentially telling them that you want to switch network providers. EE being a business they'll want to keep you on their network in which case they'll try to better the deal.
It's sort off a blackmail as you're asking them for a better deal otherwise you're switching to another providers. (the one I quoted and was looking to switch to was BT 20GB unltd mins/text for £20)

Yep, the pac is a sign that you'll go unless they try to keep you!

If you're at the end of contract or out of contract it's worth doing regardless as the PAC lasts 30 days and if you don't use the PAC you stay with your existing network on your existing package. So you threaten to leave, see what they offer and worst case is they offer nothing better than you already have and you stay put.
If you just go in and ask for a better price they won't offer this, if you just ask for your PAC and don't get into a discussion with the person, a day or so later the retentions team should call you offering a much better deal like this. Just hold your nerve for a day or two while they get around to calling.
I recently got UL voice/txt and 18GB data for £16 a month.

Now trying this tactic for my lazy bone idle son who wants a cheaper tarif from EE. If he pulled his lazy finger out of bottom, he could have taken the 20GB data deal, I pity the poor EE retention department when they get hold of me hehe!!
