Question

terrible phone and 4G signal!!

 I have an iPhone 11 and was with o2 before experiencing no problems. Since switching to ID, I cannot make phone calls anymore and have to keep turning airplane mode on and off just to get any 4G signal which often still wont load things. I’ve already tried resetting my phone and removing and reinserting my SIM card. How can this be fixed as at the moment my phone is practically unusable!

    Hi ​@Sacco1,

     

    We're sorry to hear about the issues you've been experiencing with your coverage.
     
    We appreciate how frustrating it can be when the service you're receiving doesn't match what you'd expect, particularly if the coverage checker is showing strong coverage in the areas where you're having problems.
     
    As a first step, we'd recommend checking the coverage checker again to see if there are any reported issues or maintenance affecting the locations concerned: https://www.idmobile.co.uk/help-and-support/coverage 
     
    If the issue persists, please contact our Live Chat team so they can investigate further and check whether there are any network-related issues affecting your service: https://www.idmobile.co.uk/live-chat 
     
    They'll be able to review your account and discuss any available options based on the outcome of their investigation.
     
    Regards,
