The past week I’ve been unable to make calls, send texts or use mobile data. Yet I can receive calls and texts. Tried changing the APN settings with Id on live chat to no avail, who then suggested I take it to a shop. Took it in today, they said probably a duff sim, so done a sim swap there and then for me, came home, waited for the sim to change and I’ve still got the same problem. I’m guessing Id have screwed up my settings somewhere maybe? I’m a loss. Any ideas please?

Hi @Looloobelle1980

Are you fully up to date with your payments? You should be able to find this out within your iD Mobile App or the My Account area online.

On rare occasion we've seen issues we're customers have had a Direct Debit fail, and subsequently been barred for outbound services you see.


If that's not it, then could you possibly pop your iD Mobile SIM in another handset in the house to see if you can make calls/ texts/ use data there? If you can, then that would allude to the problems being specifically with your handset or it's setting's.

It might be worth speaking with our Live Chat Team here: https://www.idmobile.co.uk/help-and-advice/contact-us to see if they can help if problems still persist.

Kevin thanks for the response. Yes all paid and up to date never a problem there. My sim was taken out and put in another phone and didn't work and another sim was put in my phone and it worked fine which proves it's a network problem. Spoke to id meant to be getting a message from the technical team today but I doubt it will arrive. I've spoke to live chat already, they are the ones that went through the APN settings with me, then gave up and told me to go to a Carphone warehouse which I did, they are the ones that tried the different Sims and done a sim swap.

Hi @Phoenix,

 

Have you checked your iD Mobile App to see if there are any error messages on their which may be preventing you from making calls? Have you paid your bill after the due date very recently?

Hi will

There's no errors on app

But when I try and send a text and it fails it says error38

My billing is alway upto date.

Thanks @Phoenix,

 

Have you tried the SIM card in another handset to see how it behaves?
