Independent profile snapshot

This extended snapshot summarises how the provider presents itself in the UK market. It supplements the dataset-led summary above.

iD Mobile is a British mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) and wholly owned subsidiary of Currys plc, delivering pay-monthly, SIM-only, and pay-as-you-go mobile services across the UK. Running on Three UK's network (which offers 99% 4G coverage and the UK's fastest 5G), iD Mobile provides SIM-only plans from £6 a month on 1, 12, or 24-month terms, plus 24-month handset contracts bundled with popular Apple and Samsung devices. Every plan includes free Data Rollover, Bill Capping, Wi-Fi Calling, VoLTE, and Roaming across 50 destinations worldwide, and iD Mobile was the first UK MVNO to launch Wi-Fi Calling and VoLTE. The operator has more than 2 million subscribers as of 2024 and SIM-only prices locked in against mid-contract annual rises. Launched on 12 May 2015 and sold online, by phone, and through Currys and Carphone Warehouse stores, iD Mobile has collected multiple Trusted Reviews and Uswitch awards, including Best Network for Roaming, Best Value Network, and Best Network for Data.
