RCS on iPhone 2025

Hi,

Are there any further updates regarding RCS on iD Mobile?

Since this was rolled out in 2024 EE, 3, O2, Giffgaff, TescoMobile (plus unknown others) have all activated it for their customers.

We’re trying to set up an Android/iOS messaging group and the iD Mobile member is the one making this impossible to achieve. She’s now looking at other networks that will offer this for her iPhone when upgrading later this year.

Thanks

Hey here @S4tlum, we do not have an update on this I’m afraid, and can only advise it’s something we don’t currently offer.

Thanks,

It’s really sad that in July 2025 ID still haven’t sorted this. 😔

I signed up to iD 2 days ago and noticed that SMS is the only option and there’s no RCS available!

In 2025 this is a massive deal breaker, looks like after 2 days I’ll be leaving 😡

Does this attitude sum up our worth as customers?

It’s incredibly disappointing that iD mobile, which touts itself as mobile done right, doesn't support RCS. I would expect it from the sluggish old carriers, but not iD. It's more than disappointing, it’s irresponsible. From an cyber security perspective you are putting customers at risk by not adopting RCS, which is an industry standard by now.

If someone from iD sees this, please raise it as feedback internally. Either implement RCS or consider changing your slogan 🤦‍♂️

@kieo -

As a MVNO, our access to RCS is determined by our network partner Three. We're working closely with them to get this on iOS as soon as possible, we're hoping it'll be soon.
