Give your PAC to iD Mobile
Sign up for a iD Mobile plan and give them your PAC code. You can usually do this online at idmobile.co.uk/my-account, in-store, or by phone.

Wait 1 working day
Your number will transfer from EE to iD Mobile within 1 working day. You'll get a text when the switch is complete. Your old EE contract is automatically cancelled.
Things to Check Before Switching
- Contract status — Check if you're still in contract with EE. You can switch at any time, but you may need to pay an early termination fee if your minimum term hasn't ended.
- Outstanding balance — If you're paying off a handset, you'll need to settle any remaining balance with EE.
- Phone compatibility — Make sure your phone is unlocked and compatible with iD Mobile's network. Most phones sold since 2015 are unlocked.
- Coverage — Check iD Mobile coverage in your area before you switch.
Different Network Coverage
EE uses the EE network while iD Mobile uses Three. Coverage may differ in your area — check coverage before switching.
