£20 cash for iD pay monthly (new and upgrade) sales via Quidco..? :confused:

Can't understand the cold votes. Looks good for me. Does anyone know if it's locked or where it can be unlocked.

id mobile on the 3 network looks good to me.

Can you paste the direct link here? The GET DEAL button doesn't work.

looks like the Huawei e5573 unlock codes eBay from 99p.

Hi All. The device is unlocked as my mate got this from Carphone few weeks ago!

Unlocked when direct from three as well

30 day contract, 20g for £20. Great deal.

Hi
I have ordered an EE 100gb sim and was wondering if I could use it in this device after the 30 days are up?

Or do you return the device?

I am using mine at the moment in Eire, but bought it from eBay for under £10.00 unlocked, so can use any SIM.

Heat for the deal - where's the catch? How can they be "giving" this away?
Don't need it, but for £20 I think I'll be buying one on Monday!

Cheers, I've ordered one to go with the EE 100gb Sim, will be cancelling the Direct Debit as soon as i see it appear in my bank.

Here's a direct link for those that can't find it -

You also need to fill oiyt DD details etc - this IS a rolling contract but needs cancelled immediately - not bad price anyway tbh

Thanks op seems a great deal just ordered and waiting on acceptance email.anyone know when and how do i cancel the 30 day contract do i wait until i receive the item?.thanks.

Look under monthly contracts

Great Deal was looking for a Mifi unit
Thanks very much

I have a few 3G dongles, guess at this price for a 4G it's a no-brainer to order!

Can someone tell me how to cancel the contract? Do you call ID network with this sim in your phone?

Does anyone know if the monthly contract starts when you receive it

Or when you activate it
Thanks

anyone aware if you can cap the data at 20gb

Hi jeeves/qt102

You normally need to call the network, so in this case ID Mobile (0333 003 7777), and then go through to the cancellations dept.
Don't see why you need to put the SIM in, as it's a data SIM, so you can't call from it, so just call the above from your mobile.

How is yours getting delivered, is it via Royal Mail or DPD?
Also, let us know how you get on with the cancellation, and how you do it.
I've just ordered on there, so hopefully if it's sent via DPD i'll get mine tomorrow.

Thanks

Thanks for the info. Mines getting delivered by dpd, not received it yet. I have rang their customer service number and successfully cancelled my contract which ends 18th november. However, the person I spoke to said they do not send out confirmation of cancellation via emails and for that I need to go through their contact us tab via their website and email them.

Cheers for the info, I suppose if you have the name of the person you called and the date/time, that's fine.
I'll do it the same way when i receive the item.

For info, how did you cancel without even having received the item, how did you have the phone number to cancel it, or did they send you that info in the dispatch email? Just interested. Cheers

Received the email with my new phone number and a 4 digit security code

just tried to cancel but their network is down.awaiting a call back when its sorted.

just received the cancellation email after emailing them earlier in the afternoon. signal in my house from the modem is crap, finding it very difficult to connect!. I'm sure the 100gb EE sim will sort that out

Received my item this morning, and immediately dropped and email to ID mobile on their website, just like jeeves did, giving my 30 day notice period.

Got got an email back from them just there saying they've processed it, and my line will disconnect on the 20th Nov.

So good deal, 20gb of data for the month, and also a 4G mifi unit for around £20.
Also, TCB tracked for £25.25 with carphonewarehouse, not expecting it to pay out, but could be a nice bonus if it did.

Thanks op for posting.

Just tried to cancel with id told me I would have to send the mifi back

Thanks didn't think of that

As this is on the 3 network, any idea if it works abroad in the countries that they don't charge extra from?

This is now back in stock guys :smiley:

Hot if it wasnt for the EE 100GB deal would have snapped this deal

you do know you can get this and cancel and then use the 100 gb from ee ?

Possibly stating the obvious: assuming you wish to minimise the contract term, you need to cancel the contract by actively giving ID your 30days notice as soon as you start the contract. Simply cancelling the DD before ID can take any payment will not cancel the contract but will leave yourself open to IDs debt recovery procedures inc recovery fees, plus potentially dent your credit rating. There is also a fee for non-DD payments.

Is this the E5573? Other places like dabs has it for £32 so not sure it's worth "£60"

Have to setup direct debit not worth hassle

Seems like a good deal. I paid £15 for 15gb with we but tied in to a contract. This seems a better deal.

what is the model number of this mifi ?

Bought and voted hot. Thanks op.
If you have to cancel as soon as the contract month date starts when exactly is that? Does anyone know? Is it from purchase date, activation date or delivery date?

Good deal. Not voting due to the following reasons:
- Carphonewarehouse does credit check for this and given their recent data leak, I don't want to risk it,
- My last name is 2 words and their stupid system does not accept it. I've told them many times in the past 3 years,
- They're known to do more than one credit checks and screw up the credit report,
- Cancellation is trouble too since they mess the cancellation and cause loads of after trouble with debt chasing etc
I'd stay away from them

Ordered. Thanks OP.

damn, just paid £60 for one at argos and it only came with 6gb on payg. anyone know if i can take it back in store? or will i have to say it was 'broken'

This is new to me, I've looked at Carphonewarehouse and there doesn't seem to be any explanation there. So is this like a router that provides mobile broadband/wifi to your devices? Can you connect PCs to it wirelessly? What if you goes over the 20Gb limit? I'm moving house soon and will terminate my phone/broadband with Talktalk, do you think this will work regarding home internet usage? (we don't need landline). Thank you

ordered. thanks OP!

Hmm got declined for credit! For 30 day rolling? Dumb

Got mine today, not bad as ordered as 20:00 last night. Works out of the box, and have sent the email to give one months notice. Am planning to attach a -15db antenna to the two ports to suck in that 4G signal that I can barely get and use the 100GB from EE. Cheers

Also, it's unlocked :smiley:

So if I got this, but kept it going for say three months then cancelled, would I likely be able to keep the device (even for a small termination fee of say under £20?) really need a lot of data at the moment and the network ID use seems to give best coverage for the area I use it in.

Am not sure yet (regarding the antennas, have been looking on ebay etc...). The model is an E5573, or to be more precise (E5573s-320).

​and then I'd likely be able to keep the device?

Yes! The device is separate from the 30 day rolling contract.

Is the device unlocked?

Model Huawei 5573s-320 completely unlocked, have tried three sim, EE sim and O2 sim and all work.
Have given ID 30 days notice I will not be renewing and will be using EE 200gb deal sim which arrived this morning over Christmas and new year. Have speed tested at 30mbps on EE sim. Fantastic Deal for 20gb and free 4g mobile WiFi thingy.

Just got my delivery confirmation :smiley: thanks OP :wink:

A fried of mine is also interested and was wondering when's the earliest you should give 30 days of notice so as to get the device for cheapest possible price, should he wait until after its been delivered, or contact ID as soon as the order is confirmed / dispatched. If so where are IDs contact details? thank you!

So paid £20 up-front and cancelled on the same day but am being told I'll still be charged for 1 month's line rental. Has anyone successfully cancelled without paying the line rental?

I just want to add my own experience here. I made the bad decision to purchase this deal, £0 upfront + £20pm on a 30 day contract.

Couple of days later I received an email with my ID Mobile number (but still hadn't received my SIM or device).

I immediately phoned and said I'd like to give notice of cancellation, and was told there would be a £20 early cancellation fee. I explained it's only a 30 day contract so I'm not cancelling early... I'm just giving my notice. The advisor absolutely insisted I have to pay a fee, and ignored my requests for a manager, saying the manager would tell me the same thing.

After a solid hour or arguing my point, I phoned back. Guess what? The next advisor cancelled me without hassle.

Two weeks later, I've now cancelled my direct debit, and got an email stating that I'll be charged extra if I don't set it up again.

So I go online to try to set it up - but you have to register online first. In order to register, you need to be sent a code via SMS. But I don't have a spare unlocked phone - only the MiFi device - so I can't receive their SMS. I phone up, and the advisor sounds extremely confused. She makes me go through the registration process and reads me out the code from her end, which would be fine if the website didn't take about 2 minutes to load each page of the registration process.

And what about customers who don't have any internet connection? How do they register, I ask? After all, I bought a MiFi device which suggests (correctly) that I don't have any landline internet access.

"They have to find wifi to register." Helpful.

TL;DR avoid this company

Has anyone else cancelled the DD?
My line is due to be disconnected in 2 days but went and cancelled it today.

See below emails to iD Mobile, my advice is stay well away from this company, as £1940.55 for 6 days internet is not good value, the Mifi dongle was only used to view web pages and stream youtube, what Id call normal use.

On 01/11/15 I went into Carphone warehouse store looking for advice regarding mobile broadband, I explained that my home broadband network was poor, I was advised to purchase a £20 Mifi dongle on the iD network which was fine, However on 06/11/15 I managed to install the iD app onto my iPad, upon opening the app and logging in I was shocked to see that it says I owe £451.49??? I phoned the iD help centre and spoke to someone extremely unhelpful, I explained that I want to cancel my contract under the 14 day cool down rule, but was told I can't.
As I'm sure you agree the product sold to me is not fit for purpose, it's simply not practical to expect someone to pay £451.49 for a weeks worth of Internet, The paperwork and receipt I received from the sales person clearly states I'm on a monthly contract for £20 per month, it also says that there is a calls limit for £75 per month, how could my account get to £451.49 without warning??, I'd also like to note that I wasn't given a copy of my full contract explaining fully what I had signed up for. On this basis, from today 07/11/15 I wish to cancel my contract under the 14 day cool down rule, I'd like you to investigate why these ridiculous charges have occurred and put control measures in place to prevent this from happening to other people, I will happily honor the agreement and pay the monthly £20 but there's no way I could even afford to pay the ridiculous amount of £451.49 even if I wanted to.

Update as from today 19/11/15:
Hi Lee

Thank you for your response.

I can confirm there is feedback from our technical department saying you
are liable for the charges.

My apologies for the inconvenience caused.

I can confirm your account is disconnected, however, your unbilled
charges are now at £1940.55

I have resubmitted the trouble ticket and await new feedback.

For any further questions please feel free to call our Customer Services
team on 7777 from your iD mobile or 0333 300 7777 from a landline
(charges from landlines and other mobile networks may vary).

Kind Regards,

Najibah Yaghya
iD Customer Service.

Further to my trouble cancelling, I've had even more of a nightmare. Here's what's happened so far:

1. ID Mobile's online portal said that my £20 bill had been "Paid", on 15/11/15, so I cancelled my Direct Debit.
2. Turns out it hadn't actually been debited yet, so they emailed me to say that an extra charge of £3.50 was being added to my bill for not having a Direct Debit.
3. I emailed them angrily, they confirmed that only £20 would be taken out - no extra charge.
4. They took payment of £20, correctly, on 27/11/15.
5. I emailed them requesting confirmation that my account now owed £0.00 and was told that I owe £20, due on 14/12/15.
6. I emailed an incredulous response, told them to make sure they took nothing more from me, and cancelled my direct debit.

If they dare to even attempt to charge me any more, or leave a mark on my credit file, I'll see them in court and milk them for every penny I can.

Never, ever will I have anything to do with any Carphone Warehouse related company again.

Now the up front fee is 9.99. Anyone could confirm get away by paying just 1 month tariff?

No good for going abroad, ID is only free to use in the UK and they charge you to use it abroad. Great price for UK though.

3 have a similar deal for using abroad but a little more.
