unable to add ID mobile number to access account


Hi,

 

I am trying to log into the app and website, registered fine, get the next page asking to add my mobile number. It just spins and then errors out saying something went wrong, please try again. During this period I get a text with a verification code, so clearly something is going on back end, but page isn't progressing.

From looking around this seems like it may be part of a known issue which is ongoing for 2 months now. Is that correct? Or has it all been fixed and something else is wrong with my account?

Hey @Gerard30, we’re sorry to hear that. As asked above, what happens when you try to access it please?

 

Do you get an error, and if so, what error?

 

Thanks,

Hi @Simon Robey 

 

I’m not sure what you mean, an iD Mobile number is just that, it’ll be told in emails that we send to you after the order has completed.

I have the same problem with no resolution in sight.

 

My old phone number, call it ...345, was supposed to be transferred over on the 31st March. 

The new, temporary, phone number (call it ...789), was supposed to be temporary.

My new phone (with the new SIM card) makes and takes calls on ...345, however all texts are going through my old phone (with my old sim card), regarding the number ...345.

If I send a text or receive a text on my new phone, it uses the ...789 number. 

This is despite the message app on the new phone saying that it is using the ...345 number.

This is also despite the many steps of troubleshooting I have gone through today with various chat agents.

 

Moreover, I am also unable to add my phone number (...345 or ...789) to the ID Mobile app, due to the details being mis-matched?

I don’t know what is going on in ID Mobile’s back-end, but it does not inspire confidence.

 

Could somebody PLEASE shed some light on this tomfoolery going on at ID Mobile???
