Sorry but I am still unable to receive sms from abroad. I have contacted support but they keep contacting me on working hours and when I found a time to be contacted when not working like this Sunday at 12 pm, they fail to call. Will I ever get the help to sort the problem?

Ensure the callers are using correct UK Format ie 441753685096.

Support may well not be available at time you desire; use CHAT PAGE.

The number is definitely correct they have been texting me for years before I switched and one number is connected to my international digital id which I need to access to… I tried with chat page but it didn’t help…also, if a customer service say that they will call but they do not…how can they be taken seriously?

Hi ​@cosnick365 .

 

I completely understand how important this is for you, especially with your digital ID access.
If the number format is correct (starting with +44 for UK), the issue may need deeper investigation on our side. Support availability can sometimes be limited, but we absolutely want to get this resolved for you.

Please try reaching us via Live Chat or email at socialqueries@idmobile.co.uk with all the details, as these channels often allow us to troubleshoot without needing a call. We’ll make sure your case is prioritized and handled properly.

Can I point out something else? I work with very dangerous, challenging individuals and I mentioned several times that i cannot answer the phone during working hours so why does id mobile keeps calling me during working hours and does not call when i told them i can answer (like last Sunday at 12? I keot the phone on all day waiting for the call)?
