Mrs Merwick


Hi 

I have very little 3G when I am out and about now. This impacts on my daily life now. I can’t use my virtual app to check where my buses are anymore and can’t talk to my daughter in Australia. I can’t do any internet banking . I feel that my contract with ID mobile is pointless!

Perhaps you're in the Midlands area where Three UK (the iD Mobile network partner) have switched-off their 3G mobile network, @Maxine Merwick.

Without a 4G handset compatible with VoLTE calling, using an iD SIM in this area will be pointless.

My phone is 4g compatible 

Do you know when 4g will be switched on ?

Okay @Maxine Merwick, 3G would not be shutdown in any area, until 4G was available in the given area.

Are you in the area shown on the shutdown map?

Hi @Maxine Merwick 

 

Please could you let us know the postcode(s) where you’re having issues?

 

It may be worth manually connecting to another network, awaiting a minute while having no signal and then connecting manually back to iD Mobile/Three UK.
