My contract with ID ended on the 1st Nov so I ordered a new ID SIM card at cheaper price from another seller.

Can I keep my original phone number or do I have to stick with with the one that came with the SIM card

You will need to port your old number to a PAYG SIM card on another provider and then once ported then port that number onto your new iD contract.

    Hi @jonjonml 

     

    Unfortunately it is not possible to directly transfer a number from one iD Mobile plan to another, you may however be able to try the above from @MZone.

    Thanks for your replies, I’ve contacted ID and I’m not going to use the new SIM card it’s only 5MB different from what I have already.
