upgrade

The upgrade options you are giving me are ridiculous. Why on earth would I want to upgrade an iPhone 12 I had off you for another iPhone 12 or lower model. Please help as this is just ridiculous.

How can I transfer my account to a different email address?

I have a new account with iD mobile for which I used my “public” email address until I had tried it.If all goes well this will become my new phone service supplier and I will want to transfer it to a “private” email address which is not used for business messages. Is this possible and how may I do this please?  If not can I just start a new account with another email address and then switch?  If I switch will I be able to switch telephone numbers so I can keep my original number?

Direct Debit fraud

Received the same letter as many, a direct debit taken out using my name and address but not my bank account details.Had a chat conversation that lasted about 25 minutes, where I supplied the action fraud crime number and my details - which they already have on the fraudulent account.At the end I was told the investigation would take up to 30 days, when I asked if they wanted the mobile number from the direct debit letter that would point them to the account the chat window was abruptly closed… no reference number given for my complaint.Is this normal?

Setting up a direct debit

Hello, My direct debit was recently cancelled due to insufficient funds. I have since paid my bill but I'm unable to set up the direct debit again, each time I enter my details it won't allow me to set it up. I would love to speak to someone to rectify this rather than ringing manually to pay my bill each monthThanks

need my PUK but unable to contact customer service agent

Hello, I recently added a sim pin to my iPhone however when I tried to unlock it to use my sim it said I needed my PUK and I do not have this. I attempted to call the the provider number as prompted and they said they sent me a new PUK via text. However as my sim is locked I did not receive the message. I have also been trying the customer service agent on the web for the past couple hours but sadly to no success. It keeps saying to try again later. Would appreciate any help I can get as my number is used for 2-FA with all my personal and banking apps and data so I really need to be able to unlock it.  Thank You,Blaire

Replacement sim question

Good evening,  Somewhere between activating my new sim and my number porting over I’ve managed to lose the sim card. I see the quickest way to get a replacement is heading to a carphone warehouse store. How exactly does this work?  Do I simply walk in, explain what’s happened and they’ll hand over a new sim with my number already ported onto it, or are there extra steps involved? Thanks in advance.

Sim Card

I received a new sim card yesterday, popped it in my phone (OPPO A54). I activated it, sent a text to check it worked, all worked fine. This morning no sim card showing in the settings. I provided a PAC code when I ordered the phone to keep my current EE number. Is the sim card disabled till the porting process is complete, or is the sim likely to be faulty? I have already tried all the recommended tasks, reseating and cleaning the sim

Number still not ported 1 week later

I provided my PAC code on signing up to ID mobile and scheduled my old number to port across from EE on 12th April. 12th comes and goes and nothing happens. I raise a query through Live Chat on 13th April and issue is raised with technical team and told to wait 48 hours. I chase again on 16th to be told there has been a delay with my transfer and to wait a further 48 hours. Still nothing.I chase again today (19th April) to be told they believe number transfer happened on 14th April. However I have received no confirmation text from ID with this and my old Sim card from EE is still working which surely it shouldn’t if the transfer had happened? My phone settings are all still showing my temporary number and won’t change to my ported one after following all instructions to do this. This makes me think number still hasn’t ported - can someone help me on how to get this resolved?

I can't transfer my number using PAC

I’ve recently joined iD Mobile from Vodafone. I got sent a PAC number by Vodafone and now can’t be sent a new one for another 30 days. When trying to to transfer my number it says ‘We've tried to process your PAC, but there is an issue with the information you've submitted. Please check that you have provided the correct details and try again.’ I tried what everyone said and type my surname in capital letters but that didn’t work either.  I can’t work out if my number has transferred across or not. I tried to create an iD Mobile account and when it asked me to type in my phone number, I tried my original phone number and it said it couldn’t be found, so I then tried the phone number that they sent me and they said they had sent me a security code to create my account. However I never received that code which makes me think my phone isn’t using that phone number either. Seems like I’m stuck in between 2 phone numbers??

Old number not recognised when switched to iD mobile

So I’ve submitted a PAC via O2 to switch over to iD. submitted the pac code when ordering the phone, hoping it would then be an easy switch once the phone arrived. However, iD app and the phone itself will not recognise my old number as the iD number. No customer service to get in touch and ask what’s going on. O2 said I need to talk to iD as the pac code I submitted has been taken by iD. (I have an iPhone 13).can’t accept calls or texts to my old number. Please help?!
