Hi ​@Jamie19295

 

Yes, iD Mobile does support 5G in the UK.

You’ll be able to use 5G if:
 

Your phone is 5G compatible, and

You’re in an area with 5G coverage.

You can check your local coverage on the iD Mobile website if needed.
 

If you’re not seeing 5G on your phone, let me know your phone model and location and I can help troubleshoot.
