    switched numbers

    I'm struggling to sort out my number. I have switched my number via a pac code but the number issued by ID is showing on text messages. If I turn off rcs messages then it uses my correct number but left on ot defaults to the sim number. I've tried changing the number on settings but it defaults back to the wrong one. Please can someone tell me what else I can try?

    How much data left?

    I’m currently abroad and have got roaming set up, but want to check how much data I’ve used. The app displays 194.7GB/100GB. What is this telling me? That I’ve used 94.7 extra outside of my plan? Is there any way of seeing how much I’ve used while abroad?

    Found a Particle Under Camera Glass on My New Honor Magic 7 Pro - What Should I Do?

    Hey everyone, I just got a new Honor Magic 7 Pro on a contract, and I recently noticed a small particle under the camera glass. I've checked carefully, and it's definitely inside, not just dust on the surface. Since this phone is IP69-rated, I wasn't expecting anything to get inside the sealed camera module. Has anyone else experienced this issue with Honor phones or any other flagship devices? Since I got it through a contract, do you think the retailer/ carrier will replace it, or will they try to send it for repair? I'd prefer a replacement since the phone is brand new. I'm still within the 14 days return window. I bought from the idmobile website and it's not a scratch, if you look from different angles you can see the particle. Appreciate any advice on how to handle this!

    How to close account? No longer know phone number, left the Uk permanently, still being billed from account not used since 2019

    Hi, I am trying to close my ID mobile account, opened and used for a few months in 2019. I no longer have the sim card, can’t find a trace of what my ph number used to be (so unable to login), and have been under chemotherapy treatment for most of the last nearly four years. During this time, ID mobile keeps sending me a bill for £5 every month, and there does not seem to be a way to contact them to stop this. The contact number does not work from overseas, I can’t find a alternative contact method, and the chatbot just goes in circles. How can I end this contract? Thanks in advance.

    Network switch unsuccessful and left with no data or service

    I recently got a new iphone 13 which was in a bundle that comes with a switch to ID with 500gb data monthly, I transferred my old phone onto my new one, which transferred everything, including my old contract with three. I chose to keep my old number and gave ID my PAC code and was told that the transfer would happen on friday on its own. On friday my plan with three did end, but I was not and still have not been changed over to ID even though they said that I have now been linked to their E-Sim. I have no data and my phone says I have no service and i dont know what to do to change over to ID as it says it should have happened automatically by them. Any help would be greatly appreciated as i have been left unable to contact anyone unless I am connected to wifi, which I cant do outside as I have no data. Thanks.

    No roaming left after upgraded.

    Hello, I’ve just upgrade from a sim only contract to a contract with a phone. As soon as I made the transition I received a message saying I’d used 100% of my data roaming. I contacted the customer service team, and they mentioned they saw I still had all my data roaming. I am very confused, I just wondered if anyone else has had this happen? If so, how was it resolved?

    Phone gone wrong with nearly a year left on contract

    My google pixel 7 has gone into a restart loop and will not turn on, rendering the phone unusable when its just over a year old and i have have a year left on my contract. Contacted ID and asked them to fix or replace as the phone was sold to me to last a 2 years contract, and is unfit for purpose regarding a contract lasting for 2 years. My phone has been well looked after and not damaged in any way. ID mobile refused to accept any responsibiliyy for this and said I need to pay for the phone to be repaired. ID should not be selling phone that are unfit for purpose regarding the length of the contract, and if anything goes wrong with the phone, they should accept the responsibility. I will never use ID mobile again!!

    Roaming allowance - how do I see what's left

    HI ID hive, I went to Italy less than a month ago and I’m now in Belgium and can’t seem to have any roaming allowance left (as my bill cap is £0 and I can’t use my phone out and about without wifi). I’m convinced I haven’t used my total allowance of 30GB in Italy but I can’t see where I can view how much I used in Italy (as the bill. hasn’t come out yet). Before I buy an add on I want to make sure I’m not missing something. Does anyone know where I can view how much I used / if I used the full 30GB in Italy? Thanks
