A Frustrating and Unreliable Service


I have been trying to activate my eSIM with iD Mobile since March 16th, and it has been nothing short of a nightmare. Every time I attempt activation, I receive the same frustrating error message: "No registered network." Despite multiple attempts and troubleshooting, I am still unable to use the service that I am paying for.

 

One of the most infuriating aspects of iD Mobile's service is their lack of a physical customer support number. The only way to get assistance is through their live chat, which, unfortunately, is far from helpful. Every time I contacted customer service, they assured me that my issue had been escalated and that it would be resolved within 48 hours by their so-called "next-level IT team." Yet, days have passed, and nothing has changed. The same issue persists, and their empty promises continue.

 

This raises a serious question: What kind of service is iD Mobile providing? They have no problem taking your money, but when it comes to delivering actual service, they fail miserably. A telecom provider that cannot even ensure a basic network connection or resolve an issue in a timely manner should not be in the market.

 

If you are considering iD Mobile, think twice. Their support is unreliable, their issue resolution process is a joke, and they lack the necessary infrastructure to provide a smooth and functional service. I regret choosing iD Mobile, and unless they fix their abysmal customer service and technical failures, I strongly advise others to stay away.

Yes, I followed the correct steps to install the eSIM—I’m very familiar with the process as I work in the tech industry and have handled eSIM setups before. The issue isn’t with the installation but with activation, which still hasn’t been resolved despite repeated contact with your support team.  

 

Over the past two weeks, I’ve been given the same response each time: "Wait an hour for activation" or "Here’s a new QR code." Yet, nothing changes. Today’s experience was particularly frustrating—agents either lacked basic knowledge, provided incorrect information (like claiming network engineers were working in my area, despite my physical SIM working perfectly), or abruptly ended the chat when asked for escalation.  

 

At this point, I’ve exhausted all options via live chat. If this isn’t resolved urgently, I’ll have no choice but to cancel my contract within the 14-day cooling period. I’d appreciate direct contact from someone who can actually troubleshoot this.  

 

Please advise next steps—this shouldn’t be so difficult.
