Hi ​@LG1986,

Ā 

We're sorry to hear you're experiencing the same issue.

Ā 

For premium texts to work, you'll need to make sure you have a bill cap in place (anything above £0.00) and that Premium Services are enabled on your account.

Ā 

To check or change your bill cap:

  1. Log in to the iD Mobile app or My Account online.
  2. Go to Bills.
  3. Select Manage Bill Cap.
  4. Increase it if it's currently set to £0.00.

To enable Premium Services:

  1. Log in to the iD Mobile app or My Account online.
  2. Go to My Services.
  3. Select Manage my services.
  4. Make sure Premium Services is switched on.

Ā 

Once you've made any changes, restart your phone and try again. If this does not work, please let us know and we would be happy to take a deeper look into this for you.Ā 

Ā 

Regards,

Ā
