I am wanting to get a sim card for my son. He has a phone but without a number so this will be the first sim he’s had. When I get the sim in the post, will I receive a phone number with it?
Solved
New phone - no phone number

Yes & yes,
New iD Mobile customers receive an activated SIM, so it’s ready to use as soon as its delivered.
Deliveries can take 3-5 working days, from the date your order was dispatched.

Yes, all new iD Mobile plans have a new, fresh number assigned to it.
You can transfer a number over to it if you wish, but if you don’t that’s fine too, you’ll be able to keep the number we assign.
