    Hi ​@Jimmyjammyjimbo, 

     

    Thank you for reaching out. I do apologise that you are facing this issue. 

     

    Please make sure that the number is correct under settings.


    For iPhone:
    - Go to Settings > Phone > My Number.
    - Check that your correct iD Mobile number is displayed.
    - If it's incorrect, change it to the number you wish to keep. It may not update or save immediately.
    - If the number still doesn't change, go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Enter your passcode if prompted and confirm the reset.


    Please note that resetting network settings will remove saved Wi-Fi networks and passwords and reset other network-related settings.


    For Android:


    To check your phone number:
    - Go to Settings.
    - Tap About Phone or About Device.
    - Select Status.
    - Tap My Phone Number.


    On some devices, this may be listed under SIM Status or SIM Card Status.


    If your number is showing incorrectly in your messaging settings:
    - Open the Messages app.
    - Tap More (⋮).
    - Select Settings.
    - Tap Advanced.
    - Select Phone Number, if available.
    - Enter the correct number associated with your SIM and save the changes.


    If the number is still incorrect:
    - Remove the SIM from your handset.
    - Restart the device.
    - Reinsert the SIM.
    - Check the number again in your phone settings.


    If possible, you can also test the SIM in another compatible handset. Send a test SMS and check whether it displays your correct number or a temporary number. This can help establish whether the issue is related to the SIM or your handset.
