I'm new to iD, submitted my PAC code at the time of ordering. My existing number with 3 stopped working yesterday morning but I didn't get a new sim, I was told I would keep my old sim. Neither my new numberĀ or my old number are working. How long can I expect to be without a working mobile? Its never taken this long to port before.

Do you have an iD SIM card @Brettaa?Ā 

Without an iD SIM card nothing is going work onceĀ Three UK close your 3 account.Ā

No, I was told that I would keep my existing sim. I did t think that was right.

The fastest way to get a replacement iD SIM card would be from your nearest Currys store @Brettaa.Ā 

Otherwise, youā€™llĀ need to use the online iD Live Chat service to ask for a replacement SIM, and then wait for the SIM card to be delivered by Royal Mail.

FYI, @Brettaa:

  • iD Mobile advise allowing 3-5 working days for SIM card deliveries.
  • Replacement iD SIM cards must be activated online before use with the network.
