    Yes. The live chat just sends me in circles.

    Hi There, 

    I have done this and even been sent a new eSIM which is still not working. 

    Was this ever resolved for anyone?

    ​@Gemma M 

    Can you send through the same message to private messages that you have been sending out. 

    Live Chat is going in circles, the technical team have requested more information but havent contacted me.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Thanks

    Hi ​@Voley.

     

     

    Thanks for letting us know.

     

    This could be due to a bar on your account preventing premium text messages from being sent.

     

    Please contact us directly via Live Chat: https://www.idmobile.co.uk/live-chat so we can look into this for you.

     

    Thanks,

    Hi ​@Gerry1967,

     

    Thanks for coming back to us.

     

    I'm sorry to hear that the previous steps haven't resolved the issue.

     

    In this case, we'd recommend contacting our Customer Service Team via Live Chat and asking for a technical ticket to be logged so the issue can be investigated further.

     

    You can contact them here: https://www.idmobile.co.uk/live-chat

     

    Be sure to let the team know what troubleshooting you've already completed, as this will help avoid repeating the same steps and allow them to focus on the next stage of the investigation.

     

    Regards,
