So I got the contract on the 6th April, received the phone on the 7th. 3 days later, the phone developed a fault. I contacted their customer services who told me to go to the Apple Store, they said there were so many faults they had to replace the phone. I informed ID Mobile that the phone was replaced when I made a complaint the next day about further issues. I spoke to their complaints department who agreed to give me the first month for free due to my issues. The next week I got a bill about my direct debit starting date and contacted them to ask why as I should be getting the first month free. They said there was nothing on their records about being given a month free and as I was still having issues with the second phone, I said I wanted to return and got a return code. I posted the phone off special delivery and they received it, I heard nothing so again I contacted them when I was on holiday. They said that the IMEI number didn't match and therefore the warehouse wouldn't accept the return. I said yes, and you know this as I told you and it's on the letter I received from your complaints department. When I got home I wrote to the complaints department again, letter received last Tuesday ( 30th April). Contacted them Wednesday, I was told someone would contact me within 48 hours and i have heard nothing. Contacted them today and they said someone would contact me within 24 hours, I could ring the complaints department they are open until 8. Guess what? They close at 6. They still have the phone, this has been dragging on for weeks and weeks where no one is listening. I even went to a Currys store and they took copies of the email from Apple showing the IMEI number that was changed. They said they didn't hear back either. I am so fed up, I can see them trying to take the payment this month and I have cancelled the direct debit already. Why is this so difficult to see that you have the evidence and you knew about the return, therefore close my account?! Absolutely shocking company with appalling customer service and communication. Save yourself a headache.

Appaling new App experience who is in charge of your IT dept ...chimps with machine guns springs to mind...time to terminate the people responsible because clearly they do not have a clue...why destroy a perfectly good App and replace it with garbage ? Did you subcontract the IT to Fiver ? absolute amateurs...goodbye.

Customer services seems to have been taken over by 3rd party help lines and bots When I tries to get help because I couldn’t get a service in Rome I cas Ames to update the ap and the received an offer of a new plan and declined but was given the plan without my permission for £23. I managed to reach a human on an on line help line the following day but was cut off before the issue was resolved. I have been for ID for many years and am very disappointed in the lack of support.

My monthly tariff kept increasing. It started at £27 per month on a 2 year contract. Within just over a year it had increased to £34 a month. Rip off. They said it was inflation. Will never use this network again.

Thanks for your review! iD Mobile Add photo One of the worst experience One of the worst companies , liars and rude I joined this company about three months ago, when you go to the shop in curry they make you think you got the best service but in reality it is one of the worst decision someone can make. It all started with my partner telling me that the hospital keep calling her as they cannot reach me to book my heart surgery but each time I check my phone there is nothing but a voicemail despite me being in a place where there is a good signal. I went to currys to find out why no one could reach me whennusing a private call, the guy in currys checked my phone a d he said the phone was fine , I already checked my setting several times. The guy in currys tried to call me from his phone using the withheld number and again it went straight to voicemail. The guy then provided me with a number to call and boy it was literally a nightmare 48 minuted on the phone with some guy from India who cared less After 48 minutes of agonising torture the guy said that he will get someone to look into this and sort me within 24 hrs and I told him that I was desperate for the hospital call since I was waiting for this heart surgery since 2019, he confirmed that 24 hrs the problem will ve sorted and I will receive a call. 26 hrs later no one called or fixed the issue so I went to their chat room abd spoke to another guy again another hour and the new guy told me that the initial guy did not tell me the truth and I need to wait another 48 hrs so I asked him to escalate and he said for escalation it will take 72 hrs and then I received a message saying that it takes up to one week. I contacted them and highlighted the emergency of my operation and that the hospital tried to reach me 17 times and just going to voicemail. Literally no.one cares so.i kept calling and one of them.offered to give me a refund of £20 , I refused and wanted more escalation, After talking to 5 different people in India someone told me to go back to currys and request a new sim I went and the new sim worked but all this could have been avoided if the first person told.me.to swap the sim with a new one Then someone from the complaint team called me, it was a lady who really seem careless, at first she said my phone is faulty but when I confronted her with facts that the new sim worked she backed up and she said she will give me my refund , no apologies or nothing so I told her I was not after the refund as I was upset about missing my heart surgery and I want further escalation so they know how to talk to people......her reaction was ...hung up the phone I was literally surprised so I contacted them and again another 20 minutes with someone from India and again asking loads of questions just to tell me that he will escalate. I am now waiting for their response as I am determined to take this case to legal and to trade standards commity and sue them for lying, lost of enjoyment, unnecessary stress, providing false information, breach of contract which resulted in me missing on my heart surgery that I was waiting for 4 years Let's see if the £20 they offered will fix this for them. My honest advice is not to use them as their deals as not different to any other providers and at least other providers has customer service in the uk and worried about their reputation while this company is just a side gig and customer is the last of their worry To avoid at all costs

Not had a decent signal since took out the contract. Technical support just rang but surprise surprise the call ended as there was no signal. Just want out of the contract as there is no other solution. Customer service is appalling. Deadlock team are non existent. DO NOT TAKE OUT A CONTRACT WITH THIS COMPANY. You will be paying for a non existant service.

The most appalling service imaginable, records of complaint inaccurate, not sure that the deadlock team exist. Said it went to deadlock this week when I asked last week. Ignoring e mails . No means of speaking to a manager, no coverage and no workable phone in BL8 area since started up contract. Totally disinterested that I need a phone as have elderly vulnerable relatives in hospital and for work.

I signed up for £10.00 a month unlimited and even had a letter confirming that only £10.00 a month would be taken out of my account. So far averaging £30.00 a month. I haven’t been able to talk to anyone about it either, even though I’ve tried. I don’t think I’ll be using them again

Do NOT be tempted by this company. It’s NEW mobile app that contains all your account details does NOT work. It’s been offline since 23 March 2024 & they cannot fix it.You cannot access your account.

New android app forced on me but couldn't register. Said had sent me logmon code texts but none came so presumed I had been hacked and moving to another supplier to avoid huge bills, no help on their site. Texts containing code arrived 8 hours later! (Time out 15 minutes!) Sad.

Be aware that this company will try to start to bill you from the date they say their sim is dispatched, NOT ACTIVATED! I consider this pracrmtice illegal under the distance selling regulations. They posted my sim with Royal Mail which never arrived & they attempted to bill me for something I did not receive and that I cancelled witgin the 14 days cooling off period . I consider this should be be taken up by offcom.

Avoid ID Mobile at all costs. They have no customer service available, just chat and they will act like sloths with replying to any queries, then because they took so long you lose connection and have to start from the beginning all over again...an hour gone and you're still trying to resolve your issue. ID Mobile have no payment reminders, you miss a payment by accident they put that straight on your credit score. My score went down 120 points just because of a £32.99 missed bill, I get paid £5k a month after tax- I have no issues making payment. This is not fair, but again no customer service available to help me rectify this utter violence on my credit score. I'm putting this personal experience clear for all to see as all other networks EE, VODAFONE, O2, TESCO MOBILE, etc..all come with customer service- I guess they value their customers. AVIOD ID MOBILE!! 😤

Please avoid if your budget allows. Only good thing about iD is that its cheap, but as most things in life, you get what you pay for. I asked to move away and they do not know how to issue a PAC code. They have blocked my number from working on their network and will not issue my PAC code. Completely non existent tech team and awful customer service.

Avoid! Terrible customer service and even worse network coverage. Could hardly hear anyone whilst making a phone call due to excessive noise and a 100GB of data monthly was pointless as it never worked. It was impossible to get a good consistent connection anywhere I went. I have ended up cancelling during the cooling off period but after the interaction after I have had with customer service today, I am certain my troubles are far from over.

Don’t bother. Cheap, yes. Customer service, the worst I have ever experienced. Online Live Chat is there preferred method of customer service. No ability to talk to a manager. Had a complaint about not receiving agreed welcome promotion. Raised issue in Nov 2023. 1)Nov - Spoke to customer service. Told me to send email to a wrong email address. 2)Nov - Live chat. Apologies made and goodwill offer made. I declined. I asked for £30. Was told most is £20. They will pass it to Complaint team. A response will be in 3 days. A LIE. 3)Dec - Spoke to advisor, promised to personally to call me back in 72hours. A LIE. 4)Feb - Spoke to advisor. Response will be in 72 hours A LIE. 5)Feb 9th. Internet is down. 6)Feb - received an email from them for me to call? 7)Feb - Over several days attempt to call them. Get through finally after 30min wait. Offer me my original request of £30 plus £1 for no internet on Feb 9th. I decline. I have wasted several hours on the phone, lied to several times, told false information to then be “offered” my original figure? 8)Feb - My complaint will be emailed to the CEO Team? They will respond up to 10 working days. 20/02/23 As a company Managers do not talk to customers. Live chat is their advertised method of communication. All in all the worst phone operator I have had the displeasure of using. The worst customer service experience I have endured. No I am not exaggerating. Any company may appear fine at face value. It is only until you raise an issue you see the true company. Remember that.
