Hi @Jessica Brancato,

Welcome to the Community!

Unfortunately File Exchange delays can take some time.

Our Back Office Team will need to check this out with the previous provider to get the number port pushed through.

We can only advise to wait but we can chase the team for updates.

Thanks @Kash! I wonder how long they can take. Also I am able to use my existing mobile Number and can receive/make calls. So I am wondering what is left to do for the porting to happen seeing that my current number works fine. 

Hi @Jessica Brancato,

Are all services working fine with the correct number including making/receiving calls and texts?

If so it sounds like the number port may have completed.

Kash

Yes, I am able to make calls and receive them with the correct number. Although I am not able to register in the IDmobile app as the number is not recognised. So I called the customer service and they still say the port has not been completed.

All sorted, I received a SMS message with my port completed. Thanks all!

Hi @Jessica Brancato 

Glad to hear this.

I bought this sim only deal on line . When I applied I was asked if I would like to port over my number from my old provider. I ticked yes and gave the pac code and the number I wanted t port over and chose today as the day I wanted the port to happen. 
After reading some of these messages from you all I’m starting to worry. 
will I receive any notification of when this port over will happen ??? I’m very worried as I am notified by text for all my work duties with my employer and it’s just not that simple to give them temp numbers as there are so many depts. 

I really need my number today as requested and offered . Please can someone help. 

The port will be completed sometime between between 8am - 10pm on the date you selected, @Jo Catterall-Rodell. 

You’ll know iD have begun working on the port when your old provider’s SIM card stops working. Mobile number transfers don’t happen immediately in the UK. 

If you’re concerned @Jo Catterall-Rodell, I’d suggest contacting iD support via their online Live Chat service - the advisers work until 8pm on weekdays.  

Hi @Jo Catterall-Rodell,

Welcome to the Community!

How did you get on with the number port?

If you are still having issues we are here to help.

Please get back to us here and we can PM you.

Hi. Today I should be switched between my old provider to ID. 
Hi ELZBIETA, we've got your request to switch your mobile number to iD Mobile. Your switching date is 30/01/2025. You'll get a SMS from us once your switch is complete. For more info, visit idmobile.co.uk/switch

I didn’t get any SMS about that. I send PAC to you. I need my old number  what keep already so many years.

That is my second number in ID on different email, I already created my account there. 
can anyone help me resolve this problem.

Hi ​@Gasiorowska 

Thank you for getting in touch. 

We are sorry for any concern caused. 

The switch can take anytime up until 10pm on the day and we would only text to confirm once it is ported. 

If this does not happen for you, please reach out and we can look in to this further. 

Thanks, 

Nat
