Hi - I have seen at least one other person have this problem and there is no satisfactory answer on the community. My verified by visa payments from my phone are all being declined and the bank says it’s because the phone switch to ID has not been done properly. Thanks for any help as this is really turning into a problem for me. Visa are declining every payment. Cheers

Hey there @Kp57, thank you for reaching out.

 

We’re sorry to hear you’re having issues with your payments. Are you having issues via direct debit, or paying manually? Or both please?

 

Thanks,

Tyler

I’m having the same problem - I bank with Coop and they have said that there is a problem for customers with ID Mobile accounts.

The SIM provider isn’t sending the verification codes to mobiles, leading to the Verified by Visa system to decline the payment.

There has been a similar problem for Sky mobile users

It affects any online payment with my debit cards which require the Verified by Visa / Visa Secure check.

It’s really frustrating - it worked fine with my old SIM provider before I moved to ID Mobile.

Hi @tpmcv,

Hi Kash - 

 

Er … I’m not sure why you suggested that link as it’s just taken me to a page about posting items on the ID Community.

 

Not the most helpful response to the question!

 

(Also - what does OTP mean?)

Apologies @tpmcv, this is the correct link:

Thanks.

Thanks - this is a link to generic issues with SIMs, and doesn’t address the specific issue. It needs a techncial solution from ID Mobile.

 

(SOmeone from the technical team contacted me several days ago but nothing since.)

@tpmcv these aren’t generic steps, they are specific to OTPs. I’d recommend trying them, notably the Manual Roam has been effective for other customers. Thanks.

Hi - checking through in more detail I can see that I have done all of these things.

Also - my bank reported that other customers of theirs with ID mobile SIMS had reported a similar problem.

In that case @tpmcv, I’d check back with Live Chat who can view the status of your ticket with the technical team. Thanks.
