I am currently still on my EE contract until the end of April, I recently took out a Sim only plan with ID mobile and I have received this, I have instructed ID mobile to switch my number as of the 24th of April but my question is do I wait until the 24th of April to put my new SIM into my old phone or do I have to have this in the phone before the switch date so do I put this in as of the 23rd ready for the 24th?? Any help would be amazing

Hi ​@Jamie-leigh Lewis  welcome to iD!

Until the number ports over, you can still use your iD SIM as it will have a temporary number attached to it.

If you would like to wait, then once your EE SIM stops working, that means your number will have ported over. Its always a good idea to give the handset a reboot with your new iD SIM in to help the port.

I hope this helps?
