Due to me returning 1 new phone and then getting another, both with id, the first turned to a pay as you go but I’d already made an account with it. Now I have new phone with a contract but can’t make new account or add my new phone to the original account that now has the pay as you go phone on. I tried making a new account but it won’t let me with the same email address and setting up a new email address would be daft, as id know me with my current email address. Any ideas, please?
Solved
Create an account with 2 sim cards?

No need to make a new Gmail address
If for example your current Android Gmail is “another@gmail.com”, just use “a.n.other@gmail.com” or “an.other@gmail.com” as the username for your new iD account online.

+26Unfortunately, you’ve got use a unique email address each time you register for your iD account online
If you’ve got an Android handset
If you’ve got an iPhone, your email service provider might allow you to create an alias for the email address you want to use.

Thank you for your quick reply. I don’t understand the bit you could use an alias of the Gmail address used with your Android handset’. I am an android user. I have only 1 email account which both the old sim and the new one are attached to. Sorry, I’m not incredibly tech savvi

Okay
You could use either as a username to register for your new iD account online, and you’d still receive messages sent to these aliases.

Thank you for your help. I am now the proud owner of 2 id mobile accounts :)

+25Hi
All iD Mobile plans would require a separate iD Mobile app/website account registered, each app/website account would require a unique username/email address to register.
