Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers are satisfied with the service provided and the transparent pricing, which has no hidden surprises. People appreciate the fast delivery service and find the signup process straightforward. Consumers also highlight the seamless transition to ID mobile, with many keeping their original numbers. However, opinions on the order process and customer service are mixed. While some reviewers praise the helpfulness and dedication of customer service representatives, others report issues such as unfulfilled promises, lack of communication, and delays in delivery. Some consumers have also reported issues with DPD delivery, such as missing parcels.

No Delivery, No communication

Ordered phone on pay monthly contract. Allegedly shipped via DPD a couple of days later, then several updates on DPD site stating delay at depot and being held. This went on for 3 or 4 days. Had to then wait another 6 working days for an "investigation" with zero updates throughout. Cannot get my head round why it takes this long, couldnt even cancel at this point, got to wait for the investigation to complete!. Finally had to chase on day 7 and was asked if i wanted an exchange or cancellation ! no apology, or even explanation on what went wrong. To top it all i've been without a phone all this time. 16 Days in total ....

Effortless from start to finish.

I was a bit hesitant about switching providers, but Mobiles.co.uk made the entire process incredibly smooth. The website is intuitive, the checkout was secure, and I wasn't bombarded with unnecessary upsells. My new phone arrived the very next day exactly as described. If you’re looking for a hassle-free contract at a competitive price, look no further. Highly recommended!"

Placed an order for a monthly phone contract with upfront cost and an additional accessory on 27.01.26.
Cancelled the order and have still not received my refund. Live Chat confirmed they have no record of the payment and no record of a refund.

Easy signup, good deal on phone. Very happy!

The signup process was straightforward, easy to bring a number across, delivery was very prompt. Got a very good deal on my phone and contract. My only complaint is the packaging the phone arrived in could be more robust. The phone box was badly dented. Fortunately the phone was undamaged but it could've been damaged quite easily in transit. More robust packaging in the future would be great.
