This is just a warning. I have had a fraudulent sim swap. This has resulted in hacking of bank accounts and money laundering. ID mobile have been terrible. They do not return your calls. Avoid at all costs.

    Thanks for replying. ID Mobile have just ignored me since the 26th of August. Never go with this company - ever.

    What the private chat that says they will contact you in 3 days over 3 weeks ago. And other ones that say they will get someone to respond in an hour. And others that can "guarantee" they will be in touch by close of business. But nobody does get in touch. It is the worse way to treat a customer. So not much further forward are we?

    There is no assistance. No one calls back. All false promises. We will phone in an hour, we will phone back by close of business. We will phone back in 3 days over 3 weeks ago. Never ever saw such bad customer service.

    I have done all that. On Wednesday they "promised" someone would be in touch Thursday or the very latest on Friday. Well what a surprise there has been no contact - yet again. Words fail me.
