As title says, if you are an EE customer, you can claim your free powerbar by texting POWER to 365.
Text costs 35p but worth it!

Oh my lord I'm on EE
You'll have to be quick though! It's simple, you text them and they text you back a unique code. You then go to your local ee shop asap before they run out (again), hand over the code and they give you the powerbar there. 
It's brill, if ever you're out and about and it runs flat, simply pop in to the nearest ee shop and swap it for a fully charged one, free!

just an FYI apparently this isn't free after a set of months they will charge you supposedly it's going around all of the social media sites - but than again do we believe what's on social media hmmmmm
what is a powerbar? I am so not down with technology now.... Considering I used to sell it and know everything I am still stuck in 1999, hey has anyone got a Nokia 8210 they are like the smallest phones ever 
i think my old boss still has one... he doesn't like change lol.. a power bar is a little tube thing with a usb port, basically a posh battery to stick your phone into if you are out & run out of charge...
As @artcasper said sporty 
I would like to add a warning that these are also only on HIRE not for free! If you leave EE you will have to return it or pay £5
Indeed, it's 18 months. Sorry, I should have mentioned this. At least it's 18 months of hassle free juice for your phone as long as you stay with EEjust an FYI apparently this isn't free after a set of months they will charge you supposedly it's going around all of the social media sites - but than again do we believe what's on social media hmmmmm
It will probably catch many people out but as long as they're aware of it. I was told that I'd get a reminder before it ends if I want to return it. By then it will probably be dead anyway!
I'm sure a lot of people will get caught out, a quick look on ebay brings up a fair few of them too!Indeed, it's 18 months. Sorry, I should have mentioned this. At least it's 18 months of hassle free juice for your phone as long as you stay with EE

Yep, they'll be charged eventually
It's a 'free to hire' scheme for 18 months then return it if you don't want to keep it.
i got a few free ones from other half's work..... never used one though so they are sat in the misc drawer !
I tried one of those solar powered thingamebobs but they were pants.
This is handy to have if you're out all day and most phones nowadays don't last all day
If you leave EE, you won't get charged if you give it back. If they ever try to charge me for it, I'll tell them where to shove it

aslong as people know that's good! I use one I got from currys, probably my best buy this year only cost me about £12 I think (I could be wrong) and lasts forever and I use it a good few times a day seeing as iPhone battery's are shockingly bad!
I had an iPhone once, I know what you mean about the pants battery life! I'm now with samsung, slightly better. I'd never go back to iphone though. I say that now but I remember saying once that I'd never leave iphone!

I've got iphone 6 The battery is good actually. Maybe they have improved, because I've never had an iphone before this one
