I am a new customer moved from EE to ID and retained my previous mobile number.  I am not receiving OTP from Tesco Oline Banking.  i have tried everything that that is on ID app regarding not receiving OTP’s and nothing works.  i have contacted Tesco technical team and they have confirmed there is no error their end and they are sending the OTP to the correct number so it is something on the ID end when i have ported across.  I cannot get into my bank a/c and at the moment i cannot pay my bill cos i have no idea how much it is.  PLEASE can anyone help????  thanks

    Hi ​@Porter63 .

     

    Thanks for getting in touch, and I’m really sorry you’re having trouble receiving OTPs after porting your number to iD Mobile. Here are a few things to check:

    -Make sure your iD SIM is active and inserted.
    -Restart your phone to refresh the network.
    -Check that your number shows correctly in your phone settings.
    -Ensure no SMS-blocking settings or apps are active.

    Let us know,

    i have done all these steps and nothing works.  I am still within my exit period and if ID can’t sort this problem i will be going back to EE.  This is the only bank account i have and i am locked out of it.

    Are you able to put your SIM into another handset to see if the OTP message comes through?
