    Sorry but I know you are only trying to help BUT im not disclosing any more of my number, every one already has the ending in "000" :beer:

    Glad you got it sorted in the end.

    You can find out the donor network yourself (for future info) by googling the first five digits e.g. 07808 is O2 . They always control the ported number and simply re-route your incoming calls/texts to whichever other network you port to.

    CPW had some cheek charging you £5 for a replacement SIM when the original was not working properly.
    The worse thing now is ID are charging me £4.33p for cancelling without 30 days notice , beyond belief that I had to port out due to sharing my mobile number with a total stranger on 1P :eek:

    I would strongly recommend anyone considering ID check first, their non U.K. based call centre is a joke, but I believe at least some of their contact centres are in this country, sales etc.
    There are more questions than answers :shhh: :silenced:

    I think the majority of users complain about their poor customer services, they seem to be quite useless.

    If they failed to mention the charge when you applied for the PAC, you could argue that the charge is not valid.

    At the end of the day who wants to stay when you're sharing your mobile number with a complete stranger,so porting out asap, it's all on my Resolver list, see if they can get a result with this non U.K. Call centre con people.

    It’s owned by CPW, but run as a separate company.
