Why is there an upgrade banner on my account, that is not allowing me to do anything, I am unable to find out the date of contract end. The banner is not clickable to remove it, I find it quite oppressive,that I CANT DO ANYTHING, IF I WANT TO UPGRADE AGAIN WITH I.D MOBILE, then its my choice, not being forced into it, by an unremovable banner, that stop me from viewing MY INFORMATION

    Hi ​@Crazydiamond

     

    I understand the frustration here but I need to be clear and factual about what you’re seeing.

     

    📌 Why the upgrade banner is there

    The “upgrade” banner in the iD Mobile app/account area is:

    • A promotional and eligibility indicator, not a restriction on your account
    • Shown when your line is approaching upgrade eligibility or is eligible based on contract status
    • It does not block access to your account information by design

    It also cannot be removed or dismissed because it is part of the app’s fixed interface.

     

    🔎 Why you can’t see your contract end date

    This is usually shown in:

    • The iD Mobile app → Account / Plan details
    • Or your welcome email / order confirmation
    • Or your online account dashboard (web login, not banner area)

    If the banner is covering navigation or making it hard to access sections, it’s usually:

    • A display/app glitch
    • Outdated app version
    • Cached session issue


    🔧 What you should do

    Try these steps:

    1. Close and fully reopen the app
    2. Log out and log back in
    3. Update the iD Mobile app to the latest version
    4. If still stuck: delete and reinstall the app
    5. Try logging in via a browser instead of the app

    You can also you can try the website to see that works any better for you.

    This is on a browser, nothing is clickable, I  should be able to click the banner off, so that I can see my account information
