Hi @savine, 

Welcome to the iD Community! 

If you’ve just received a replacement SIM, you’ll need to activate it before you can use it. 

You can activate your SIM here:  https://my.idmobile.co.uk/ja/web/cpw/sim-swap - once you’ve submitted your information, you SIM should be up and running in a couple of hours. 

When entering your SIM card number, be sure to double check that you’ve entered them correctly, there’s 14 numbers to enter, so I can get tricky.

Thanks,

Nikhil

Hi, thank you for your response. Unfortunately I am unable to do this as I don’t have an account. I am unable to activate with a security code as I think the email I have on file is incorrect and as I cannot get into the phone I cannot have a code sent via text?
