I’ve had a text message from ID about my pay ment hasn’t gone though and after 5 days I just got paid so I can pay it off but now there put my account on hold but I can’t even pay it as it won’t read my card and I’ve already rang up and it’s just not helpful and I’ve tried making a online payment but it said my card isn’t working or something and it was fine before they put my account on hold!!! What do I do?

Hi there ​@Amy Prout 

So you had a text about a payment failing and then waited 5 days before contacting them? If so you’d have been better off to have spoken to iD either before the payment was due (if you knew you had insufficient funds) or as soon as you knew it failed. They could have granted a payment extension (on a case by case basis) and therefore you may not have lost service.

 

Firstly, try clearing the apps cache etc and/or your browsers cache etc. This should help with previous attempts.

 

This link also has another link about if you’re struggling to pay

 

 

Then can you make a payment via the iD app?

(link gives app images and how to)

 

 

Or if the app doesn’t work what about paying via your online account (hence my suggestion to clear the browsers cache and cookies etc)

  1. Log-in to My Account Online.
  2. Tap ‘Bills’.
  3. Tap the Outstanding Balance message.
  4. Select whether to pay in full, or pay a custom amount. Tap ‘Continue to payment’.
  5. Confirm the amount you’re paying and the billing address. All good? Tap ‘Make payment’.
  6. Enter your Card Number, Expiry Date and CVV. Tap ‘Submit’.
  7. Once you’ve entered your card details and the payment is successful, tap ‘Done’.

Or try restarting your phone and try 7777. If your phone can’t call 7777

  1. Dial 0333 003 7777 from any other phone.
  2. Select Option 1.
  3. Select Option 2.
  4. Follow the steps on the call to make an outstanding payment.

 

And are you sure you’re putting the correct card details in the correct sections?

(It’s easy to miss something if its stressing you out)
