Apple has just unveiled its huge new update, iOS 26! Get ready for a brand new look and some incredibly clever features that will make using your iPhone better than ever. We’ll walk you through the biggest changes, from the stunning "Liquid Glass" design to smart tools that help you block spam calls and messages. And it’s available now! So, before you whip out your iPhone to admire the iOS 26 makeover, we’ll give you a quick guide to some of our fave new features… A fresh new look & feel. Your iPhone is getting a visual makeover that makes it more personal. The new "Liquid Glass" design creates a cool, translucent effect on icons and widgets, giving your display a dynamic and modern look. Run your finger across the screen and it’ll look like you’re viewing your screen through a lens. It’s the biggest visual overhaul since iOS 7. But that’s not all! You’ll have more customisation options for the Lock Screen and Home Screen, allowing you to tailor your device to your unique style. The Camera app has also been made sleeker, letting you slide your finger to open up all the different camera modes - like panorama shots and portrait mode. Resolution can be changed with a simple tap at the top of the display. While it looks new and exciting, it’s still the familiar, easy-to-use iPhone experience you know and love. Say hello to smarter features with Apple Intelligence. Apple Intelligence brings powerful new AI features directly to your iPhone, making everyday tasks easier and more intuitive. One of the standout features is "Live Translation" in Messages and Phone calls. This is perfect for holidays and connecting with people overseas. And the best part? It’s all done on-device, which means your privacy is protected. Another smart addition is "Visual Intelligence," which lets you search for things you see on your screen. Whether it’s a landmark, a product or a piece of art, your iPhone can now help you find more information with just a tap. The Photos app is better than ever. After feedback on the iOS 18 layout, Apple has listened and redesigned the Photos app in iOS 26 to be much more user-friendly. The app now features clear, separate tabs for "Library" and "Collections," making it simple to find your albums and memories. This redesign is a direct response to user feedback, aimed to fix the parts in the last update that some people found confusing. Managing, editing and sharing your precious pics with friends and family has never been easier. No more nuisance calls and texts Get powerful new tools to stop spam and unwanted messages before they bother you. The "Call Screening" feature can find out who’s calling and why before you answer, helping you avoid those annoying telemarketers. Additionally, a new "Messages from unknown senders" folder keeps potential spam out of your main conversation list, ensuring your inbox stays clean and organised. One more thing... iOS 26 is a huge update that brings a beautiful new design, smarter AI tools, an improved Photos app and powerful spam-blocking features to your iPhone. And we’ve only just scratched the surface. Dive deeper and you’ll find an overhaul to CarPlay, Apple Music, Apps and Wallet too. But that’s enough from us for now, what do you think? Which feature are you most excited about? Let us know in the comments below!

I have a pay monthly plan with ID that is 24 months long and I am not able to upgrade, rather, “downgrade”. I would love if I could switch to a cheaper plan! I have tried for a while to switch but it always says they don’t “have any plans available” which I’m sure can’t be true. Maybe I have to stick with the plan for a little longer before I can switch? If anyone knows why I can’t switch please let me know!

Does ID mobile use the date format of the USA instead of Uk? I ask this as on my plan it says upgrade date the 12/11/2025 ans then says I have not been with ID mobile long enough to upgrade. ThNks i advance for any replies

Pretty soon, deals will be everywhere - but not all of them are what they seem. As Black Friday and Cyber Monday roll in, so do the scammers - ready to catch out anyone who’s not paying close attention. With online shopping at an all-time high and festive deals starting earlier each year, it’s easy to get swept up in the excitement. But while you're hunting for bargains, fraudsters are hunting for victims. That’s why it’s more important than ever to stay sharp and protect your personal info. Whether you're buying gifts for loved ones or treating yourself to a tech upgrade, this guide is here to help you shop smarter, avoid common traps and keep your data safe. Double-check before you click. If a deal looks too good to be true, it probably is. Scammers love to lure people in with flashy discounts and urgent messages. Before clicking on any link, take a moment to check the URL. Does it look legit? Are there any spelling mistakes or strange domain names? For example, a fake site might use “amaz0n.co” instead of “amazon.co.uk”. One letter can make all the difference. Top tip: Stick to official websites and bookmark your favourite retailers so you know you’re in the right place. Look closely at the sender. Scam emails and texts often look like they’re from real companies - but they’re not. Fraudsters are getting better at mimicking trusted brands, so it’s worth taking a second look. Check the sender’s email address, look for odd phrasing and don’t hesitate to google the message to see if others have flagged it as a scam. Top tip: Only shop with retailers you trust. If you’re buying from a business you’re not familiar with, check them out on TrustPilot. Never share your personal details. Banks, mobile networks and legit retailers will never ask for your passwords or payment info out of the blue. If you get a message asking for sensitive info, it’s almost certainly a scam. Only enter personal details on secure websites (look for the padlock icon in your browser) and be wary of unsolicited requests via email, text or phone. Top tip: If in doubt, contact the company directly using their official contact details. Pay securely. How you pay matters - and some methods offer better protection than others. Credit cards and trusted platforms like PayPal often come with buyer protection, which can help if something goes wrong. Avoid bank transfers or unfamiliar payment gateways, especially if you’re buying from a site you’ve never used before. Top tip: Always check the payment options before you commit. If it feels dodgy, walk away. Stay alert, shop smart and protect your data. A little caution goes a long way. By staying aware and following these simple tips, you can get the best of Black Friday without worrying about fraud. Got your own tips or stories to share?

I attempted to to switch my old number to ID using a valid PAC, but the page showed an error - specific message was “Oops……. something went wrong - Please try again” I attempted several times with the same error message

I am out of contract since Sunday and needs PAC to switch my number but am repeatedly being told different things by the agents. The last agent asked for me to send my passport/driving license on the chat channel to be able to send me my PAC when I have already answered the security questions. To send this data via an unsecured channel is in breach of the data protection act. What can I do to get my PAC?

I am still waiting for my £100 Curry's gift card after upgrading to a Pixel 10 Pro XL on August 31st 2025. So far iD Mobile support has sent me to Giftcloud support, who I have messaged and they said no voucher was associated with my email address. I went back to iD Mobile and they said to contact Curry's. No doubt someone at Curry's will send me back to iD Mobile… Can someone please take ownership and finally get this sorted, rather than sending me all over the place and getting nowhere? Please? For my sanity!

I just upgraded to the Google Pixel 10 pro and I noticed that the £100 Currys gift card wasn't on the order despite it being a qualified purchase.

I added another plan to my account for my wife. On my iD app I now have 2 plans both in my name. Can I rename the wifes plan with her name to make it easier to manage the plans?

My phone was stolen and I want a proof of usage and barring.

I have successfully switched my old number to ID BUT - My ID account was created before the number was transferred, using my original ID number. Now when I try to log in it is sending the code by text to the number on the account which is the old one - so I can’t receive the text. How do I now access my account.

Why does my phone not ring when called (not because it's set to silent?) It means calls go immediately to voice mail which i also cannot access - because every time i try it says “set up pin - to do this call us” - which when i do it simply gives the same message!

I received my sim yesterday, inserted it in a second phone and tested the number, all was OK. I then filled in the Switching form and entered the PAC as well as other details chosing today for the transfer. Transfer was confirmed for today between 10am and 6pm. This morning the ID sim is showing no connection, and if I ring the number from a different phone it reports - invalid number. I am hoping the sim goes live again with the transferred number later today - but is it normal.for or the sim to go dead for a period of time on the day of transfer?

So it's officially past the window for the free £50 Currys voucher and I have had nothing come through. It was supposed to be 30-60 days after the end of the promotion, which was 11/07/25, but I have had nothing. I am on the 24 month plan and the voucher was explicitly included in the deal I bought. I've had a good experience with ID so far so am hoping this was just a mistake.

I've paid my bill but my services still have not been restored. Please help thank you

Hi, so I’m halfway through the process, and have already switched my number over to a PAYG sim from Asda. I’m awaiting my new 12 month pay monthly sim from iD, which i signed up for before starting the whole process. Before I put the new iD sim in and activate it, can i still use my new PAC code from Asda to transfer my number over, or did i have to give the PAC at the point when I signed up? I can’t remember if it asked for a PAC at the time.

my phone still doesn't have my old number, despite it being the day after the transfer should have happened, AND this email from yourselves. yes i have turned the phone off and on again. Your switch is complete. Hi Andrew, Good news! Your switch to iD Mobile is now complete!

Since Tuesday morning I’ve been unable to make phone calls. I either get an engaged tone, or a message saying “sorry, your service does not allow access to this number”. This has now resulted in me being unable to phone my GP in order to make a critical appointment. Can someone please tell me what I need to do to get a working phone service? I’ve got an eSIM on a Samsung Galaxy S23. Thanks.

Hello When I leave the house my phone seems to flick onto emergency calls only and shows as not registered on network.

I'm repeatedly getting important calls (Bank, school, hospital etc) going straight to voicemail without ringing. I've tried every setting, still nothing. There doesn't seem to be a fix in the forum and I can't try my esim in another phone. Has anybody managed to solve this yet?

I’ve just recently joined id mobile, and I’ve getting a lot of missed called text messaged. When i do answer the phone it common the call will drop around 30-60 second mark, I've tracked it down to when wifi calling is enabled, if i disable it, i see have no issues will calls disconnecting during conversion. Is wifi calling broken, i don’t have great reception inside my house, is there a fix for this? it didn’t happen on my old network I’m using an iPhone 17 Pro with esim

No mobile signal at RH13 ( where I live) for about three weeks. The service status has said there is an issue which is being investigated since at least Oct 21. I can make calls elsewhere with no problem. When will this be resolved please!

Hi, I’m out of contract with ID and want a different plan but without changing my phone number. Is it possible to do this by keeping existing SIM and speaking with someone in Customer Services for them to activate the new service? Or do I need a new SIM and then get the number ported over? The Chatbot doesn’t like this Q 😁

Good afternoon, I would really like to upgrade my phone however the phone I would like you have on your plans if I were a new customer but not as an existing customer. Is there anything you can do to supply the phone I like on the contract that would be suitable for me or would I need to leave and rejoin ID mobile to get the deal that I want.
