Hi welcome to the ID Community



Activating a replacement SIM.

If you’ve got a replacement SIM because your old one was lost, stolen, damaged or the wrong size, click on the webchat button below to speak to one of our Live Chat agents. Tell them you’d like to process a SIM swap, and they’ll happily take you through the process.

Please have your account details and SIM card number to hand (see ‘Your SIM card number’ below for details on how to find it).

Hello @Lucy110582,

When you say you can't get the phone onto the network, what do you mean by this? Have you just joined us or have you been with us for some time?

We had some system issues that affected new connections and this has delayed the activation. If you have just joined us from around Friday (05/04/19) then you may well have been impacted here. We're working to resolve this as soon as possible and apologise for any issues you're facing due to this.

For future issues, please make a new post if the topic does not relate to your current problem.

Mohammed

Hi @Christine Couldridge,

If you have upgraded your iD contract, when you login to your app, you should see a pop up asking if you are using your new SIM. If you confirm you are using the new SIM, the swap should go ahead automatically for you.

If you are unable to see the pop up, or need any further help, you can contact our Live Chat Team here to get your SIM activated.

When contacting the team, we'd recommend having your account details and new SIM number ready.
You can find the SIM Number printed on the new card.
