Buying a new phone but keeping my sim only ID deal

I am looking to buy a new phone from ID but want to keep my pay as you go sim.

How do I go about it.

It’s NOT an upgrade, as I never bought a phone from ID before.

Hi @Isabelle Z,

To do this, you would need to check out our SIM Free phones found here. Alternatively, you can purchase a network unlocked/SIM Free device from elsewhere (i.e Carphone Warehouse) and then simply insert your iD Mobile SIM card into it.

HI Ryan,

What a convaluted way to get some answers.

I have now purchased a new phone on contract from Vodafone.

My new problem is that I can’t port my number from ID to Vodafone with the PAC number, a VRG number, that has been provided.

I REALLY NEED TO KEEP THIS NUMBER….

Can you help ?

Isabelle
