    Why does my bill look different after an Upgrade or a Plan Change (Pro Rata)?

    When you change your plan or upgrade, your bill might look a little different. Here’s why: How is my bill calculated after I change plan or upgrade? As with most networks, we bill your monthly line rental in advance. If you change your plan or upgrade, you’ll have paid for a whole month on your old plan, but only used it for part of the month. The cost for both your old and new plan is calculated on a pro-rata basis (so you’ll only pay for the days you used each plan). You’ll keep the total allowances (like data, minutes, and texts) from your old plan and also get the pro-rated allowances from your new plan starting immediately. Example. Please note: This is an example bill, your bill may look different. Let’s say your billing month runs from the 18th of October and ends on the 17th of November. On the 31st October, you decide to change your plan or upgrade. We’ll bill you for the number of days on your current plan (18th October to 31st October). We’ll credit you for the number of unu

    New Customers Offered Better Deals

    Hi everyone. Has my one else noticed that new customers are apparently offered a better Del than us existing ones? I’ve been with ID for a long time now on a monthly rolling contract and when I looked at upgrade plans for sim only I saw that unlimited everything is an option for £18/month. However, when a friend looked who isn’t an ID customer they got the same deall offered for only £15/month. I thought these sort of goings on were now illegal, as that’s what the energy companies used to do. Anyone got any insights as to why/how this is happening and who we can speak to in ID to try to get the same good deals offered to new customers. Cheers
