Any users of this network (they use Three) here? As far as I can tell, and after asking their CS, my P7P is unlocked and I should be able to use international SIM's. They still don't seem to support eSIM's looking at their website so I'll just pop in a Vodacom SIM.

Both my Brother and Sister in Law use ID Mobile and never have a problem. They also use them abroad.
Me and my wife use Smarty which is also Three so compare deals.

Good to know, I was surprised they were unlocked being on contract. I've bought outright for so long it hadn't occurred to me!

Don't quote me on this but I thought I read somewhere that phones can't be locked to one provider now.
I think they have to unlock it once you're out of contract but not sure if they can lock it before then. Seems to be a variety of information out there.
Just moved to ID, have been a three customer previously and in the same area ID is noticably slower and less reliable.
Not sure why, I've moved from a Mi11 to a Pixel 8 and I doubt the Mi11 had a better radio than the Pixel....

Probably Three prioritise customers on their network first and have limits on traffic on the MVNOs who they support.
Had a similar experience when I moved from Vodafone to Voxi.
Maybe so!
Unfortunately the best experience I have is with lebara..... But usually buy a new phone with the contract so only ever use them to bridge between new phones!

What are ID's price plans like?
I'm on Three, so same network, and I pay £8/month for unlimited calls/texts and 25GB of data. This is sim-only and is for 1 year.

I'm on Smarty and pay £10 for 60gb which is also Three however somebody said above that proper Three sims take precedent on their network.

Joined a couple of months ago and all seems well.
I was a Three customer a few years ago, and they seem to have improved coverage in my area a lot since then!
No complaints here

All phones with all providers should be unlocked now.
