Hi,
Just a quick one on accounts. I’m looking to swap my contract from my existing contract to a SIM Only deal. At the same time, I was also hoping to complete an account transfer (the account is currently in my Dad’s name as I was under 18 when starting out with ID; now I’d like an account in my name). However, it doesn’t seem like this is possible. As far as I understand it, I’d have to do the following:
- Open up a new ID Mobile account for the SIM Only plan, in my name.
- Purchase a cheap PAYG plan with another provider.
- Transfer my current number to the PAYG plan.
- Transfer the number to the new ID account and close the original ID account.
Have I got that correct? Just seems like a hassle compared to other providers that provide the choice to change ownership of an account.
