Hello @Lee55,
I've merged your posts together as you've already created a topic relating to the same issue and posted elsewhere.

We're not able to transfer an existing iD Mobile number over to a new iD Mobile account.

You should be able to change your existing plan if you're on a SIM only or upgrade your existing plan to a handset contract.

If you email us onwe'll take a look at your account(s) and advise the best way for you to get the plan you're after whilst retaining your number.

We'll be able to access your account and advise on the options available to you.

We wouldn't be able to do this from here.
