Phone signal is really poor.  Again signal checker is showing that it should be great.  I am only new to ID mobile and unless things improve I am going to have to come to an arrangement with ID mobile.

Thank you ​@Stephen Willis. Is the issue with calls, texts, or data, or all three?

 

How many bars of signal do you have?

 

Thanks,

Tyler

No it has not been great from i took out the contract in November, but I have put up with it.  Now I am thinking why am I paying for a service that is not being provided by ID mobile.  I checked the coverage for my area before I took out the contract and all looked good.  I am certainly not getting what ID mobile are showing on their coverage checker.  Very disappointed.

Terrible signal over most parts of Belfast - Bt5 / Bt4 / Bt9 and BT7. 1 bar showing and dropping to 4G. Not receiving / making calls and good luck with accessing internet.

this seems to have gone down hill dramatically since Dec 24. I’ve been with ID mobile for over 2 yrs and not a problem before this. What’s worse, I move 2 of my kids contracts to ID mobile in Dec as well and they too are experiencing shocking signal. 

all in Apple 16 phones. Have restarted phones multiple times, tried turning on / off air plane mode, reset network settings etc etc. done it all, no difference, 

 

can someone from ID mobile give update on what is going on? Nearly think you have lost a few phone masks. But something definitely changed for the worse.

shame.

You need to get this issue sorted ID mobile or I will be contacting the Communications Ombudsman as you are in breach of your contract regarding coverage.

Hi ​@Andrewcousins 

 

You would only be able to send the PM once a member of the team invites you. 

Is this to provide the postcode for where the issue is?

Thanks ​@Andrewcousins 

 

I can confirm Tyler is a member of the team but I cannot see any private messages sent from ourselves. 

Would you like us to send one over in order for you to provide the details?

 

Thanks, 

 

Nat
