good morning only just joined number was supposed to be ported on the 1/10/2024 sim arrived yesterday, old sim is still showing signal/service.

 

this is not a very good start tbh, heard nothing but good things about id but i am now begginging to think otherwise.

 

please get back to me asap. other wise i will just cancel and go elsewhere 

 

thank you

Just been on live chat, but it’s not live chat it’s bots how do you actually speak to some one at id or can you not 

Okay @Jay982, have you tried telling the iD bot that you want to “talk to a person”?

Unfortunately @Jay982, if your old service provider’s SIM card is still active, iD Mobile haven’t begun working on your switch.

These online articles explain how to contact iD customer service.

@Mark Melia -

When were you expecting the switch to complete? Do you still have signal with your old provider? Thanks.

Her switch can complete anytime up to 10pm on the day she selected. If she also selected today to switch, I’d advise waiting till then.

Thanks.
