This is great news for guys like me. Some months I never use it, then I binge it all on a weekender away and don't have enough. One month max rollover, and rollover is used up first.

FAQ's
Data Rollover
How does Data Rollover work?
Data Rollover is really straightforward. Any data you don’t use is added onto your normal allowance for the next month.
Your Rollover data will be used first, and then your normal monthly data allowance will be used.
If you don’t use all your Rollover data, it expires at the end of the month.
How much data can I rollover?
If your plan includes Data Rollover, we’ll let you roll over ALL your unused data at the end of each month. There’s no maximum limit.
How long does my rolled over data last?
Your rolled over data will last a month. If you don’t use up all your Rollover data, it expires at the end of each month.
How much does the Data Rollover service cost?
If Data Rollover is included in your plan, consider it a free service. We won’t charge you anything for it.
What action do I need to take to roll my data over?
You don’t need to do anything. It all happens automatically, and you’ll be able to view your Rollover info at all times with the iD app.
What plans does Data Rollover apply to?
iD Data Rollover has been added to all 12 and 24-month GoTo plans.
Why do I need Data Rollover?
If your phone use differs greatly from month to month, you’ll find Data Rollover really useful.
For example, if you travel overseas on regular work trips, you’ll probably save data when you’re abroad, and use more when you return home.
Which of my allowances rollover?
Your data allowances will rollover, if eligible.
How will I know how much I have rolled over?
Go to MyAllowances, and click MyData to see how much you've rolled over. We add this amount to your standard UK allowances, giving you a new total amount. You'll then be able to see this information broken down between standard allowances, rollover and add-ons, to help you understand how your allowances are made up.
How will I know if I have any roll over left?
Go to MyAllowances, then MyData and scroll down the screen to Rollover. You'll see a breakdown of your rollover amount. You'll only see rollover amounts from previous amounts if you're still eligible to use it. If so, it'll be included in your new standard amount for this month.

Worst network ever dont go with them. They debited my account didn't send me a sim card and it took me about 30+ emails to get my money back. Really poor customer service also.

Not strictly true.
Virtual Networks, like iD, Tesco Mobile, etc. are given a lower priority on the network - and are more likely to be bandwidth throttled.
Basically, you're a lower-class network citizen...
Worth considering if you're in a busy area (like London) as although the signal might be the same, you'll probably be faster on Three.

ripped off for 1.90

Everyone has to remember that people who have bad experiences are more likely to complain and people who have good experiences rarely pipe up. That makes a service seem worse than it actually is. Vodafone, for instance, are generally very reliable but they have been getting loads of bad press recently for their terrible billing system.
I'm an iD user. It was quick to set up, they charge me £10 a month, I get loads of data for a cheap price and their tariff management app is slick and easy to use. No, I've not been on the phone to them yet, but I haven't needed to be.
This is a great deal and if you sign up with them you'll probably think it's a great deal, too.

Shame it doesn't apply to their TakeAway plans, I suppose that would just be too good though.

Happen to notice this yesterday on my phone when I checked to see my balance - rather useful as I didn't use much last month :smiley:

How do you find the network, if I may ask?
I'm currently a customer of Three and paying £6.90 for what I could get from iD for a fiver and feeling a little ripped off.

iD runs on Three so the network should be identical. Although if you have a problem you'd have to deal with Carphone so...

Sounds good. Heat added.
Good job I've still got their unlimited data deal still.

These unlimited deals are getting shed recently I notice all over networks. Maybe that's what iD are trying to do here with the free rollovers - trying to take some disgruntled ex-unlimited customers.

Ahhh that's the big one! I don't use a lot on data on my phone but I use the Three tethering option to my iPad for movies etc

I'm with ID and can tether with my iphone. I know they say no tethering but it works for me.

I think you have to be careful with iD. Im with them and sat on the phone for almost an hour trying to get through to customer services the other day. Also you cant change or upgrade your contract with them without cancelling your current one first, and i keep getting messages saying ive used 80% of my data allowance yet I'm no where near that (I'd used 1.75gb out of 4gb). I'm sure these may be a couple of minor kinks they are still working out considering they are still new, but honestly I do wish I hadnt switched in the first place.

I switched from O2 at the start of the year and for me the service the same as O2 for call reception and data speed.

I can't tell you whether ID is prioritised below "native" three customers but I can tell you that I've had no issues with data speed in the UK (40Mbps last test I did) and also had no issues with roaming abroad, except they appear to temporarily disconnect you if you burst too much data in a short period (I can't find any mention of this anywhere).
