no update since 'your order has been processed' email

Hi, on Sunday I made an upgrade order and I received the acknowledgement email, and then the 'your order has been processed' email. Since then I haven't heard anything. I spoke to someone on live chat yesterday who said because of the bank Holiday it would be 24 hours from yesterday morning for it to be sorted. Still haven't heard anything, and now the Live chat button won't appear. Anyone have any idea what to do? Its getting really frustrating

How can I turn off warning texts about using short codes?

I've set my spending limit per month just so I can enter competitions that use short codes and am obviously aware that it is the entrance fee (£2) plus a standard text cost. But, everytime I do this I get a warning text from iD stating the obvious. How can I turn off these annoying messages?

Not receiving security code on new ID SIM

Hi all,I just received the ID SIM and am trying to register online (and app) where it sends security code as text. I am not receiving the code, however, I do receive texts from my phone contacts on this number. Not sure what is going on. Chatted with the agent on live chat, and it seems everything is fine asked me to contact voice team with same information that i provided him- so basically redirecting without any progress.Can someone help?Many thanks,Sol

Does WiFi and 4G Calling Work Differently on iD?

HiAm interested to know how WiFi and 4G calling is working (or not) for others. My device is a Google Pixel 6.On my old network, if I'm somewhere where I have WiFi and its signal is stronger than the network's, the outgoing and incoming calls will automatically switch to the WiFi signal. I've noticed on iD however that it only switches to WiFi when there's no network signal - I did a test to see if WiFi calling would work by switching to aeroplane mode and switch WiFi on. As soon as I come off of aeroplane mode, calls would route back through the network signal even if WiFi was stronger. Is this normal behaviour on iD?4G calling doesn't seem to be working either, or at least not how I expect from my experience on previous network. Previously I would know that I was utilising 4G calling because there would be an HD icon next to or under the phone number. In the history it would also show this HD icon next to the calls that used 4G calling.Many thanks

out of hours contact

Hi i would like to cancel my SIMo contract, but the only way it seems is by contacting live chat. Live chat has to be within fixed hours, otherwise it is only a robot. I cannot cancel through my account because i am returning within 14 days hence it is not a 'cancellation' in ID terminology.  How can i contact ID out of hours to process my returns. It is mind boggling that a company like this doesnt have an email address. Thanks.

 I am trying to switch to iD Mobile using a PAC.  When I do so I get the following error message: We've tried to process your PAC, but there is an issue with the information you've submitted. Please check that you have provided the correct details and try again. I have triple checked all the details have been entered correctly ie PAC, Last Name, Old Number, New Number and Transaction Code.I can not access the Live Chat and am being sent round in a circle by the iD mobile’s ‘how to contact us’ guidance Also, there is no useful information immediately apparent on this community siteI do not know why I am receiving the error message or how to proceed.Can anyone offer any help?

'call cannot be continued' message

Hi! My husband is having trouble calling me, he is on 1p mobile and they suggest that the fault is with me 😮 !!! When he calls me he gets the message 'sorry your call cannot be continued'. I've checked that I've not accidently blocked him. I've taken by sim out and put it back in, etc. I would be grateful if anyone has a fix! Thank you 🙂

agent says Port was successful but number hasnt changed

I signed up to ID over a week ago and spoke to an agent in chat with my PAC number. Two days later number not changed, still on ID number. Contacted chat again, with PAC, was told its with the Tech Team. Two more days, still nothing. ANOTHER chat agent call, each one being in a queue for 20 mins to be told sorry, what’s the PAC code and your old number, and that tech team will definitely be in touch. I’ve restarted my phone multiple times. Still not ported over. This was coming from UW mobile which uses the EE network.

no delivery confirmation

ordered my phone yesterday, got he order confirmation around 6pm yesterday via email. This said it had been passed to the delivery partner and they would text today to give tracking/delivery details.I haven't received anything at all, I now don't know if this is an ID mobile issue or a TNT delivery issue.When i click the transaction number link on the email it takes me to TNT delivery, but everything i read here is DPD delivery, so i am very confused

Cannot literally do anything

Hi everyone. I have few problems with my Id mobile account. 1st. I can't top up my account because since my old debit card expired,it doesn't let me put the new card details: when I select new card details it bring me on the right page but with an error message,both from mobile or pc and from any browser and even the app.2nd. I've tried to live chat with an operator since about 3 weeks and there's just no way to get it. Keep saying try later.

pixel 7 pro screen protection?

Just got this phone, really impressed with it so far... One issue though, the screen is "apparently" soft and prone to scratches. I have purchased a tempered glass protector which has a visible circle to allow for fingerprint recognition. The glass fits perfectly giving full screen coverage but the fingerprint sensor is now useless. Can anyone recommend a reliable screen protector that actually works? Cheers 👍

How long does ID take to deliver sim card?

Ordered on 4th April 2023, a monthly sim only package. Still haven't received it or even an email to say when it is coming. But ID obviously have already billed and set up direct debit for it. How long do I have to wait?  And pay for services I can not even use?
