iD Mobile - 3 months free on any plan -30 day sim-only plans included

Niemoj

Just started porting over the number and will have to wait for it to switch nkw, they said should take a max of 2 hours but I've registered for My iD in the meantime, so far so good.

Will then have to ring up to get the plan I'm on maxed out.

The number failed to port, Meteor seems to have blocked it somehow but they're going to let me know more tomorrow.

In the meantime they said I can use the temporary iD sim and I'll still qualify for the 3 months free offer.

In the list of available mobile networks you will see two 3s. Try selecting both and see if one gives better results or select automatic.

Sorted now. Highly recommend id so far

My number has finally been ported over! So much for maxmium 2 hours!

The offer expires today anyway so maybe the OP can update the title?

I switched to iD earlier today, my old number hasn't ported over yet though. Hopefully tomorrow.

In the meantime, I can't connect to the mobile internet - I don't have the APN settings and can't seem to find them anywhere on the website.

Anyone care to help a brother out? Cheers!

Ok received my pin today with temp number. As I have to port my own number over, I am trying to register with MyId first but it will not send a PIN to my current number.

If I put that new sim in my phone and sign in with it, is it not activated, nulling the offer?

Whats the actual sign up/porting process for everyone?

Feeling thick as pigsh*t over this!

Offer ended yesterday.

Process is now that you have the sim, give them a call. They'll port you over and then you can sign up for myid. I think you can signup beforehand but I wouldn't in case it causes any problems.

I 'purchased' yesterday for €0, just have not activated the sim yet. Think this means I cannot get this offer?

Not sure, best just give them a call. Once you her through they are fairly helpful I found.

I registered with my temporary number and could view everything fine and then once my number was ported over it just told me to log in with that number.

No problems at all.

I'm on the legacy Three payg plan that includes a free tenner every €20 top up, would I be mad to move to ID?

I'd be tempted to say yes, do you have ayce data etc for topping up 20?

beardo81

Yup, that's the one. Think I'm just too tempted by the 3 free months! Maybe I should stay put

Yeah I'd stay with 3, that's better in the long run.

I'm the same as you, but unlimited calls and texts with 20gb did grab my attention. I've had a line with iD for three months now (paying the special rate of €15 - no longer available) and still have my Three number. Haven't ported. Don't know what to do or what's better value.

Three has more perks, the tenner a month free, the Three Like Home. Though, poor customer care, OK speeds. iD has lower price, free voicemail, and unlimited access, but no perks.

I think I'm going to cancel this within my 14 days. When I first installed the SIM and added the Apn I was getting LTE and H in Ballina but I've not seen H since and that's 10 days ago. I'm on holidays so I've been in Wi-Fi mostly, not really been out and about much to test fully. I made contact with iD on Sunday, they replied on Monday and it took them a full 24 hours to reply confirming the Apn details and state that they do not support a OnePlus One. I still can't get better than edge in areas where my wife's phone has 5 bars of H on the 48 network.

Have you tried going into mobile networks and automatically selecting network. Sounds like it might be stuck on the fallback network.

Yes, more than once. Tried removing and re-adding the Apn. Tried turning on roaming. Nothing works

I was with them with a oneplus one, had no issues with data, but a load of call outages. Has the service improved any?

Tried that again just for luck and it's worked

I don't use it often enough to know any different, I'm also on holidays and trying to avoid people

Niemoj

Apologies for dragging up an old thread but is it time to cancel yet?

Tinie

Probably a good idea to start cancelling now if you dont want to pay for the service after the free months.
