Good luck!  I started a new contract last Wednesday with my number due to be ported last Friday.  My old network disconnected my number last Friday morning & it hasn’t worked since.  ID mobile say the port was successful but cannot explain to me what has happened to my number. They’ve been telling me for 6 days now that it will be resolved within 24 hours.  I would seriously reconsider your move to ID if you can!

Hi @Danny Mossman 

 

Welcome to iD Mobile!

 

This is completely normal, all plans are provisioned a number from us before the number you transfer is transferred over.

Hi @JoAshton 

 

I’m sorry to hear this, this sounds like a completely different issue to the original posters issue however. If you’re already in contact with a team we’d recommend keeping contact with them.

I want to cancel.my contract before I even started. Because what kind of app or " company" doesn't have customer care?

So I'm a bew customer,  when I ordered new sim card I clearly stated that I wanted to keep my number, however, I've received sim card with new number,  and this is the reason I  can't register on the app with the new number. I needed to speak with someone who can help.

Hello ​@Koshuma 

 

Thank you for getting in touch with us here on the community. 

 

When porting a number over to us, you would receive a temporary number on the SIM until the port is completed. 

What date is the port booked in for please? 

 

Thanks, 

 

Nat
