phone number isnt working

I’ve spoken to the robot assistant and finally got through to an actual person to help me with this situation. I’ve done all the reset and stuff. However, that didn’t work, so you was going to send me a new Sim. It  hasn’t arrived ( that was last month). I’ve been trying to get back in contact but hasn’t worked. i’m really struggling with this problem because anyone that phones my number is directed that it’s unavailable. This whole time I am receiving nothing and it’s been nearly 2 months.I just want a new sim with my number working.

Previous number not transferring

When switching to ID I have provided the correct PAC code to transfer my previous number and I have been waited over a week since the date my number was supposed to be transferred. Has there been a problem with transferring my previous number?

Help. I’ve upgraded from phone and sim contract £28.10 to sim only at £10 but i am still being charged £28.10.

HiMy 2 year contract for £28.10 ended August 2023. I used the website to upgrade to a SIM only contract for £10. Now I am charged both amounts.I spent 2 hours on my phone trying to resolve this via the text messages to customer services last month. This resulted in me being sent another SIM card bringing me to 3 now in total.Cancelling a sim only contract will incur early penalty charges.  Why can’t I speak to someone once and for all to get everything sorted out? I probably just need someone who understands which sim to use to make it right.No confidence in this happening just now as more money drifts out of my account needlessly.Any suggestions please? Jon

Does anybody know how I can cancel the request before it’s processed tomorrow. Thanks

Switched over number and its not working

I have switched over my number to this new phone with ID with a PAC code, I can call people and it comes up as my contact number however I can’t text and calls do not come through to this new phone they only come through to my old phone. I have restarted both phones and turned off my old phone and got someone to call and it still didn’t come through to my new phone

Can't update from incorrect SIM-only deal to 24-month contact

Morning! I’ve been a customer for several years, with my recent 24-month contract coming to an end. I recently moved to a cheap SIM-only deal to tide me over until the Pixel 8 Pro announcement. However, it seems my intended 30-day SIM was erroneously processed as a 12 month contract, leaving me unable to upgrade with iD as intended (and take advantage of the preorder deal) An operative told me on Saturday it would be rolled back within 24 hours. This hasn’t happened. Now I’ve been told it could be a further 48 hours while the technical team look into it. Based on my recent experiences, I have little confidence this will happen.I’d really appreciate faster progress with this. I want to stay - and pay iD more money!

Thanks

I eventually got to chat on line with a person via the Facebook iD mobile chat line . The problem of retaining my old telephone number after my switch from 3 to iD has been actioned. My thanks go to the “human” on the chat line . The Bot chat line is useless and the route to getting help at iD is labyrinthian and needs sorting so that more direct and responsive help can be given without going through social media channels .

I am unable to login to my account via web or the mobile app!

I just recently purchased a sim with iD this week and for some reason whenever I try to log into my account it says there there is a problem and to try again later. And to make matters worse is that I can’t make any phone calls as my phone tells me that I have no credit in my account and also can’t send any texts or even use my data outside. I have tried multiple times the ‘forget password’ option but I never receive the code for updating my password. I have deleted the app on multiple occasions and reset my entire phone but there has been no progress what so ever. I have been in touch with the lovely iD team via the chat service and I was told by the representative that they would raise a ticket with the IT team and I would receive an email by them but to avail has that happened and its been a few days. Please can someone aid me in rectifying this situation because I am being increasingly frustrated now as each day goes by.

Poor network coverage in Glasgow

Is any one else experiencing network issues with ID? I live in the G52 area and work in the city centre, in both areas the signal is very poor sometimes I have half a bar and sometimes none, when at home I have to go outside. I've never had any issues with my old network providers Vodafone and Tesco. I have been with ID six weeks and beginning to wish I hadn't changed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

MMS charged over WiFi?

I am using the Messages app on iPhone, and I sent an image to another iCloud user while connected to WiFi. It seems I was charged 55p for this by ID.  I don’t understand why I would be charged for this if it did not even travel over the ID network. I can understand if I did this over the 4G or 5G network, but this seems like a robbery to me.
