Out of all the SIM only plans available this July on iD Mobile, we'd say their best value deal is their 1‑month SIM below, which gets you unlimited data, plus unlimited minutes and texts for £16 a month:

In comparison to the rest of iD's current SIM only plans, it's one of the best. But it is beatable on price, even if you're set on joining a provider that uses the Three network. Here are other networks you can beat it on:

Or their £12 for 150GB SIM plan is worth a look too

If you need less data, you might like the £12 SIM only deal running on iD Mobile at the moment. It's a 24‑month plan, which comes with 150GB data, unlimited minutes and texts too:

You can't actually currently beat iD's prices there for a SIM only deal with 150GB data or more on any other provider. Here are the closest alternatives each network is currently offering:

For a smaller amount of data, we'd say this is one of iD's best deals on SIM only this month too. It's a 1‑month plan, comes with 50GB data, unlimited minutes and texts for £8 a month:

It isn't actually the cheapest 50GB data or more SIM available overall this month but if you definitely need your plan to use the Three network, it is the lowest cost option. Here's which other networks can beat it:

They've also got a 30GB for £7 SIM plan at the moment

If you don't want so much data, have a look at iD Mobile's 30GB SIM below at £7 a month, as it's another good deal. It's on a 1‑month plan and comes with 30GB data, unlimited minutes and texts:

If you compare prices against iD's competitors, there are actually none with 30GB data or more that beat them currently. See the nearest SIM only deals from other networks under the dropdown below:

We go over everything in our iD reviewRead our full review

In our review of iD Mobile, we said we liked that they offered full access to Three’s network (including identical 5G speeds and coverage) on low-cost deals. And they have an excellent WiFi calling scheme as well.

You can choose either a 1-month, 12-month or 24-month contract on iD. It tends to be the case that longer contracts cost you less per month. But it’s still worth checking to see what their best current deals are.

iD tend to offer great value on all their SIM only plans, and the cost of your plan won’t increase during your contract so you can hold onto that value. They’re usually one of the cheapest ways onto Three’s network.

They’re fairly low-frills, but they do have a good data rollover scheme that lets you keep unused data for your next month. They also offer inclusive EU roaming. But they don’t offer much else.

Your iD Mobile SIM card will be delivered within 2-3 working days after ordering. You’ll get each size of SIM card in your package to fit any phone. iD don’t offer eSIMs yet (see the providers that do here).

When you order anything online you have 14 days to get a full refund, and this is also the case for SIM cards. Here’s how you can get a refund if you’re unhappy with your SIM.

You’ll have to pass a credit check to join iD, no matter if you want to join on a 1-month, 12-month or 24-month contract. If you’ve been rejected for a contract you can still join on a PAYG monthly bundle.

If you’re switching from one network to get onto iD Mobile then you can keep your number by requesting a PAC from your current provider to give to iD. Here’s more info on how to do that.
