Is it possible to transfer my old number, onto my new iD mobile sim, while I am abroad with both sim cards in the EU? Or will it only work in the UK?

You’ve got to be within the UK in order to port your number to an iD SIM card.

Is your other SIM card is from another UK mobile provider?

You’ll need to be in the UK during time period the number port/switch happens - good luck @nat06.

Hey @andewhite, Only UK Mobile numbers can be ported over to other UK Mobile numbers.

The way the post was phrased lead me to assume they wanted to port a UK mobile number to iD, but do that while abroad.

It’s not really that clear - anyway, thanks @Mohammed

Why iD Mobile?
