3 days I’ve had this phone number and so far I have had 3 spam phone calls and one spam text! I’ve put my number in the NHS app and given it to family and friends. How are spam callers getting my number??? I’ve just changed from Giffgaff because of this! Any way to stop it?

spam calls are driving me mad

What phone do you have? Maybe try downloading a spam blocker app such as Truecaller or Hiya.

+24Hi there
Unfortunately, all we can advise is to ignore/block any spam callers where possible. We can offer a number change, however this costs £25.00, unless you have an action fraud reference. But I’m afraid there’s not much we can do or advise when it comes to spam calls, other to ignore and block what you can.
Sorry about that.
Thanks,

I have had the number less than a week, I’m not paying to change it. I don’t understand how I can be getting these calls when I haven’t entered my number anywhere. This seems like a problem with ID. Do you sell the numbers to companies?

All we as a network, any any network really can advise is to ignore/block the numbers where possible, and offer a number change if the customer wishes to do so.
We’re really sorry about that.
Thanks,

If iD Mobile won’t replace the number, just cancel; you are within the cooling-off period. Even if they do change the number, you won’t ever be free of spam.
