I recently moved my current account to another provider via the switch process everything seemed to be working fine until now in terms of Direct Debit payments. 
 

I contacted my new bank the Nat West and the two Direct Debits are both correctly setup and awaiting notification from yourselves. Would someone please call me on Mob [REDACTED] to try and help resolve this issue? I just want to pay my monthly bill and my son’s account as I have done for over a year.

Kind regards,

Tom

Hi Tom

 

It’s entirely up to you but posting your mobile number on a public forum may mean you get unwanted calls/texts/communications. I have requested this is removed/hidden.

 

I would suggest you contact iD via their live chat - start the chat with change direct debit or better still talk to person to bypass their automated chat bot.

iD’s Live Chat team are available 9am - 8pm Monday to Friday, and 9am - 6pm Saturday, Sunday, and Bank Holidays.

You can access Live Chat here: www.idmobile.co.uk/live-chat.

Hi,

For the record Customer Support provided by yourselves at iD mobile is an absolute joke. Earlier today, when I wrote more than 5 words your bot tripped out and couldn’t cope. When I eventually got relayed to having a chat with a human it informed me I’d have to wait 125mins. All I want to do is pay my monthly bill and even that aspect been made a complete mess of by yourselves. I would like to initiate a formal complaint with yourselves and intend following up with writing to the Ombudsman. It’s long overdue for iD mobile to start providing a much better level of Customer Support. I have two monthly contracts which are due to expire next year, I’ll be upping sticks and moving them elsewhere.

I have to admit I have never tried Live Chat myself and probably wouldn’t if I too was advised it would be an estimated 125 min wait. Wow.

 

For the complaints side of things this might also help

Hi ​@thomap03 

 

Have you changed your direct debit details in the iD Mobile app/website?

 

Please ensure all your details are up to date and matching your bank, including name, address etc.

I find all chatbots are useless. I have found Royal Mail’s to be the worst. Insists on answering your query. Even though it can’t & you’ve asked to speak to an advisor.
