My resolution of this problem was quit as soon as my contract allows. I had experienced much more problems with them, but all the do just ignore problem and blame on users. Had enough not gonna return to this company again. 

I agree. Reception is awful especially for data. Going back to EE at contract end despite the exorbitant costs.

Both myself and my wife are with ID mobile.

 It’s working fine for me but not for my wife 🤷🏼‍♂️

 I have an eSIM, she has a physical SIM maybe that’s the difference?

I’m on IOS 18 and she’s in IOS 15

Nope, still the same issue.  Went on chat yesterday and it was escalated so apparently I'm to be contacted within 48 hours.  Not had anything like this happen before.

Having spoke to an advisor they are aware of the issue and are working to resolve it I’ve stated they shouldn’t be charging us for services we’re unable  to use and got the reply of a credit will be raised in the account to cover affected times

Have they given any time scale to when this issue will be resolved?

I’ve been chatting to support this morning - was on a physical SIM and now on an eSIM, yet I still get this issue (outgoing calls only, all other services ok).

Mine started yesterday with near constant ‘user busy’ notifications for any number I called. If it did dial through, it would randomly disconnect minutes later. Today, I can’t call anything without getting the ‘your service does not allow access’ message.

Partner’s phone also on ID working fine (iPhone 11, iOS17). My phone is iPhone 14 Pro (up to date iOS). Swapping my physical SIM into her phone (before the eSIM swap) and the problem followed the SIM. Her phone already uses eSIM, so couldn’t (easily) try in reverse.

So seems to be a network level fault with certain customers…

Still awaiting fix.

Hi Barry, I chose to have an eSIM when I signed up.

 According to the help article you can request an eSIM via live chat
