Just moved from EE mobile to ID mobile, everything’s great apart from not being able to call mum who happens to be on EE network. 
 

when telling her about not being able to get through to her she has told me that ID mobile runs off THREE network and other family members that were on THREE had to call her on WhatsApp as they couldn’t call her either?. 
 

whenever I try to ring her ‘call is not recognised, please check the number and try again’ 

 

anyone else have/had this? 
 

happy Monday!

Hi ​@Scott Walker 

 

Thank you for getting in touch. 

 

We are sorry to hear you are experiencing this issue. 

Can you please confirm if the other people experiencing the issues calling your Mother are also on iD Mobile?

 

Thanks, 

 

Nat

Thank you. 

 

Yes, our parent network is Three. 

Does your Mother have any problems calling the numbers that are experiencing the issue?

 

Thanks,

Hello again, 

yes she can call people on three but they can’t phone her, I also still can’t seem to call her but yet everyone else is fine, there’s nothing wrong with her phone or mine.

Hey there ​@Scott Walker, sorry to hear that.

 

Have you tried deleting her as a contract, and re-adding her?

 

Have you re-tried adding her in both the 07 & +44 prefixes and see if that helps?

 

Thanks,

Tyler

Thank you ​@Scott Walker 

 

With other people having issues contacting your Mother as well as you, it would indicate the problem is originating from either her SIM or handset.

Has she had a replacement SIM from Three?

She seems to be able to recieve calls from anyone and everyone that isn’t on THREE network or ID Mobile lol 🤷‍♂️ 

theres nothing wrong with sim nor handset 

when she has called up EE before which is the network she is on an advisor did tell her over the phone that people on three can’t seem to call people on EE.
