Hey @blues_driven,

Just checking is this from one specific company or all companies?

If it’s just one company, see if the company can re-set this up.

If this is all, let us know as it may be an issue with the port we can get raised to fix.

Hi,

It’s all companies, I’ve tried three different logins/signups. I’m receiving messages from ID and other people but can’t get any OTP codes.

 

Thanks

Did this get resolved? I have the same problem and as wide spread as this seems to be with lots of others having the same issue I’d mobile don’t seem to be able to help. Palmed me off to JustAnswer which I paid for but they also don’t seem to be able to help

Hi @Chris Quintin,

Welcome to the Community!

Are you having issues with other numbers or just OTP?

Is it specific companies or all of them?

It can sometimes take a while for them to come through but if you could confirm the above we will get back to you.

Despite having lodged four complaints with ID Mobile, I am still encountering issues with receiving OTPs after the recent number transfer. This persistent problem is causing significant inconvenience, and I urgently seek your assistance in resolving this matter.

Nothing happens urgently in the iD community, @Oscar Viegas
Better to use the online iD Live Chat service, or contact iD privately using their social media channels.

Hi @Oscar Viegas,

Welcome to the Community!

Sorry to hear that you are having issues with OTP’s.

I can see that @andewhite suggested getting in touch with our Live Chat or Social Media Team, did you manage to contact somebody?

If you still need help please let us know.

I have had an issue with this since switching on the 16th of October.

ID mobile repeatedly blame the sender and deny any issue, even when given multiple examples.

The forums here are full of reports of the same and ID do not seem capable of fixing it.

Escalate through complaints and then ombudsman.

ID mobile were unable to fix it. After months of arguing we went to the ombudsman who let me out of contact without termination fee. I ported out to another network and the issue has resolved as soon as I left ID.
