Had my phone sim hacked

Had my phone sim hacked, somehow they got hold of my sim and I D Mobile gave the hackers a new sim. I have tried now for over a week to get these people to give me a complete new number and sim they are determined to only give the advice of we have to wait for another dept. to get involved and they need 24/48hrs. I am escalating my complaint to the Ombudsman, so anyone out there looking for a new device think on, cheap as chips deals yeah great..... but you have issues its like getting hold of the captain of the Mary Celeste . Over a week i have waited and STILL waiting.

Don’t bother

Don’t bother. Had nothing but problems with this company when trying to switch over to them and they just kept saying it was technical difficulties or to wait 24 hours. Then when I said ok I just want to cancel because it was becoming hard work after 3 days of trying to attempt to switch, they confirmed it was cancelled and then later that day, re set up the direct debit. I got an email to say it has been set up again to a different number they originally gave me. When I spoke to them again to say I did not consent to this, all the live chat person said was, I’m sorry!

I cannot pay my bill or close my iD Mobile account. I was never able to download the eSIM, so I could not use the number or access the app. Twice I tried to pay by phone, but the automated system could not process my payment. I called the complaints team to pay the outstanding amount and close the account, but they transferred me back to the same system. They also told me I have a 12-month plan, which I dispute - i previously used the chat service and they knew i had a six month plan. I posted a review about this before. iD Mobile’s social media team replied telling me to get in touch, but gave me no way to contact them. I have already contacted the complaints team. My payment has still not been taken and my account is still open. I need someone at iD Mobile to take responsibility for resolving both issues.

Hi Nicola,

I am truly sorry to hear about the difficulties you have faced, especially after making multiple attempts to resolve the issue. I completely understand how frustrating it must be to be unable to download your eSIM, make a payment, access your account, or successfully arrange for the account to be closed despite contacting us on several occasions.

We appreciate the concerns you have raised regarding the disputed contract term, the payment difficulties, and the lack of a clear resolution. This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide, and I apologise for the inconvenience and frustration this has caused.

We have tried to contact you by phone to discuss this matter further; however, we were unable to get hold of you. We have also sent you an email regarding your concerns. Please reply to the email at your convenience so that we can review your account in detail, clarify the contract information, and work towards a resolution for both the outstanding balance and account closure.

Once we receive your response, we will be happy to investigate this further and ensure your concerns are properly addressed.

Thank you,

ID Mobile was recommended so I joined thinking it was such a good deal also because it was recommended by Martin Lewis as well. I’ve had nothing but problems since I joined I was with them for three months and for most of the time I was contacting them or going to the store to change my SIM card. I couldn’t receive or make calls. I spoke to several different customer advisor saying the same thing with no resolution. I’ve now left them which took four attempts to get my pack code and still didn’t get it. They said that you would get it within 30 minutes and I was waiting a whole day. I then went onto Google to check eventually was able to do it via text with Google Help not with theirs needless to say, I will not be going back to them terrible terrible provider

Hi Vicky,

I am truly sorry to hear about the difficulties you faced during your time with us. I understand how frustrating it must have been to experience ongoing issues with making and receiving calls, have multiple SIM swaps, contact customer support several times without a resolution, and then encounter further difficulties when trying to leave.

We value all customer feedback, and I am sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations, especially after joining based on recommendations and positive reviews.

We have requested some additional information to allow us to investigate your concerns further.

Thank you,

Very poor reception

Very poor reception, even in a city centre! Don't understand how if they use the same network as Vodafone. Would not choose ID mobile again.
As for the response received, your coverage checker says it should be fine and I have a digital SIM so can't do any of the other things. It's a brand new Google handset that you provided, so don't know why there would be a problem with that.

Hi Magpiechique,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I'm sorry to hear about the poor reception you've been experiencing, even in a city centre.

I tried calling you to discuss this further but wasn't able to reach you, so I've sent you an email instead. In the meantime, there are a couple of quick things that may help narrow down the cause:

Please check our coverage checker for your specific area: https://www.idmobile.co.uk/help-and-advice/coverage
Try removing and reinserting your SIM card
If possible, try your SIM in another phone; this will help determine whether the issue lies with the handset or the SIM itself

When you get a chance, please could you respond to the email at your most convenient time? We'd really like to get this sorted for you.

Thank you for your patience, and I'm sorry again for the trouble this has caused.

Thanks,

disdapointed really

Mobile signal was slowed down towards end of contract so I would upgrade, price to upgrade was 15% more that being a new customer so clearly no loyalty for the existing customers, complained multiple times to chat, to get told there’s no issues with the mast, and can’t port number directly from id to id mobile, it’s 2026, this should be easy

Hi Ashley,

I'm sorry to hear about the experience you've had with both the network service and the upgrade process. I understand how frustrating it must be to feel that your signal quality declined towards the end of your contract and that the upgrade options available to you did not meet your expectations.

We have attempted to contact you by phone to discuss your concerns, however we were unable to get hold of you. We have also sent you an email regarding this matter. Please reply to the email at your convenience so that we can investigate your concerns further and review the issues you have raised.
