I am experiencing the same problem, it works via website login,but not the app, appears to be technical glitch.
Can this be escalated to IT helpdesk to fix pls ID customer service
Hello
Can you confirm what device are you using to access the app on?
Is this one we provided you or one you purchased elsewhere?
Have you tried changing the permissions as outlined in the message?
Mohammed
Hi its Samsung s23 provided by ID.
There is no option on menu settings to change as per the alert message.
Hi
Please could you go to your settings and then permission manager.
From here please select storage and ensure that the iD Mobile app is set to allowed.
Please let us know how you get on.

Hi to anyone having this problem. I also have this problem and also on another couple of apps. I have done a bit of research, basically because of security restrictions in Android 13, some apps cannot access storage and need updating. Sounds like a job for app developer.
Google ' Android 13 permission changes'
The problem still persists as I found after upgrading to a phone running Android 14.
I wonder if this is the same bug as Android 13 or a different one!
I cannot believe this problem still persists with the app. Is there no-one capable of updating the app to be compatible with Android 13/14 upgraded permissions. Come on ID, get your finger out!
This is not, repeat NOT a phone problem as downloads can be done via the website.
I have the same problem with PC website and phone I want to check my bill due to extra charges incurred when roaming in January. The App, automated chat response and website are absolutely rubbish and I shall be moving away from ID as soon as my contract runs out in July. I guess you get what you pay for...CheapS***
Same problem on Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, Android 14.
App asks for a setting to be enabled that is not available.
I am able to download from other apps without the permission (which is not available anyway) which suggests the ID mobile app is not using the correct api.
Hello,
I am having a similar issue, I am not able to download my bills from my phone and at the same time I am unable to download the bills online. Can anyone offer some advice please.

Hello, I have read the thread about being unable to view/download PDF bills, and although the thread says the issue is resolved for all customers, it"s still an issue for me. I don't have an option on my phone to grant "storage" permission. I have RealMe 9 android device. Thanks.
Hi
This is an issue with downloading via the iD Mobile app, are you able to instead try downloading on the website?
The thread mentioned above is for a completely separate issue to being unable to download from the app due to being unable to grant storage permissions.
