service does not allow access to this number

Was there ever any resolution to this problem? I’ve been with ID mobile for over a year. On a call to a UK mobile that I call daily (husband) and ive just been cut off 3 times in the space of one call with the service doesn’t allow message 

Never got your menssager

No. I Can't call any uk number.

When I try to make a call it says: " Your service doesn't allow access to this number" ( This actually happens to any number mobile or 0141)

I got unlimited mins 

Yes I am in UK

I am having exactly the same problem since November, and still paying for a service that I am not using. I can't make calls at all. Only date still working.

Hi @Tomlo777 I understand we’ve reached out to you via Private Message to look into your issue in particular.

@steh575 we’ll message you here now so that we can take a further look into your own complaint.  Please click your profile and go to inbox to get back to us there.

Thank you.

A very long message has just deleted due to the poor way in which this app throws you back to the dashboard screen and I will attempt to redo. My language never mind my tone was out of order in my last message and was aimed at I.D the company not you or any other staff member personally and if anybody was offended it's a shame that I have been offended so much to go and offend others in turn. No doubt my point, which is right, has been overlooked by my poor choice of wording.

Thanks for explaining wifi and web data, I dont have social media apps draining my data and battery.

As explained when not connected to wifi I had no service at all, data or calls or texts, essentially the whole package my service plan is based upon that I have paid in full and on time as per agreement. Unfortunately, as detailed in the Consumer Rights Act 2015, I.D have failed to deliver their side of the agreement.

I did manage to get on the LIVECHAT and speak to someone helpful, they were so nice and helpful I actually gave the survey afterwards the high mark of 2 out of 5, they were on a 6 but I had to consider the reason I was in LIVECHAT to begin with.

To be offered £3.42 as a goodwill gesture or refund for loss of service is an outright insult when I have had similar problems each month for the last 3. To be informed there have been intermittent outages in the area at various times seems a bit convenient also.

Anyone would think I am trying to wriggle out of paying or something, what I am trying to do is get a decent and honest service for a decent and honest price, that I have continued to pay as per the terms of agreement.

It would appear the service has been working again properly for the last 2 days and I hope it remains as such, however, it seems like a long wait on the customer service number and I doubt I will receive another call from them as the one I did get, as promised, lasted just long enough for the smart capabilities to change from the number to 'I.D customer services' before it hung up. Approx. 3seconds?

The Chartered Trading Standards Institute, who logged my enquiry when I called to check I was not mistaken in my understanding of consumer rights, also gave me information on other things regarding complaints and the timescales permitted by law to rectify matters.

The Communications Ombudsman is something I have been advised about also, yet I am a very reasonable and upstanding person regardless of how many swear words I know and I do not think that this matter needs to be escalated so far as that.

I have made contact, my complaint has been logged, I have received a 3 second phonecall that was too quick to answer, and, as a result of that process be it common I.D practise or 'just a very busy day' I am now placed in limbo and responsibility passed back to myself to call a number that is not being answered when I try to call it.

This is where we are upto, i will accept a refund or reduced bill but £3.42 is not good enough and customer services have my number and ability to make a call with an acceptable amount of time in which to answer it yet it falls upon me to make contact again, which is poor to say the least.

Almost 2 days ago I added to this thread.

No response.

Still without a service if I leave the house and dont have wifi.

What kind of monkey operation is this?

I cant get to a carphone warehouse and even if I could what would be the point?

I wont be making any more monthly payments if this phone is not working soon.

Hi @Alant1948,

Are you getting the automated message, or are the calls just cutting off? Is there a particular duration the call gets to before this takes place?

Will

Hi there @Alant1948 that issue in particular has been resolved now.

If you’re experiencing something similar still, then this would potentially be something new and exclusive to yourself.

Is it just one particular number you’ve had this happen with, or have you had several calls drop in the past few days?

Have these been happening all over, or have you only noticed this at one particular postcode?  (Could we get that postcode too if possible?)

Hi @Alant1948,

Are you getting cut off immediately, or is it saying “service does not allow access to this number” first?

Will

Hello @Alant1948  @jason1111 @ps2mint  @Bigcol 

Thanks for contacting us.

We’re still looking into the issue with Three UK and hope it is resolved soon.

Kind Regards,

Hi @Gareth8 & @AndyLB,

We’re sorry to hear that you’re having this issue too. We have another thread about this here and my colleague Kieran has mentioned:

Hi everyone,

We believe we’ve found the cause of the issue and now just need to provide a fix. For some reason, some calls at random times are failing over to our backup server even though our primary server is running normally. Having backups and fail overs is usually a good thing as it means our services continue to run even if there is a problem. However, in this instance, something’s not working correctly. This issue should only be affecting a very small minority of customers which makes it a little trickier to solve. I can understand it’s frustrating for you as customers and I can assure you we’re all working to get it fixed as quickly as possible!

I’ll provide a further update when it becomes available. Thanks for your patience!

Kieran

@Gareth8 we will have a member of our Support Team contact you via PM too to ensure this is logged on your account.

Kind regards,
Ryan
