iD mobile offer free upgrade to unlimited data and minutes plans for NHS workers

Phone network iD mobile is offering free unlimited data, minutes and texts upgrades for NHS workers.

The promotion has been launched as a special thank you to frontline staff working throughout the pandemic, and will be running until 9 October 2020 when allowances will revert back to normal tariff specifications.

Any NHS staff looking to take advantage of the deal can visit idmobile.co.uk/nhs-unlimited to sign up using a valid NHS email address.

There's also the added bonus of this offer being open to both new and existing iD Mobile shoppers, meaning everyone can benefit from the savings.

With the offer even if you sign up for the cheapest deal, such as the £3.99 sim-only plan, you can upgrade without additional cost to receive unlimited minutes and data.

The newly launched deal is already being shared among bargain-hunters, with members of Hotukdeals.com sharing details of how to redeem online.

Fellow shoppers were quick to praise the move, with one commenting, "Everyone doing their bit for the NHS...well done".

Another added, "Thank you NHS! This is a fantastic offer. "

One NHS worker also commented on the deal, posting: "I work for NHS and was about to change operator as my minutes have been used up and other operators where adding allowances to NHS staff. I will make use of this offer."

ID Mobile isn't the only phone operator to roll out special discounts and benefits for frontline workers during the pandemic.

Vodafone has also offered 30-days of free unlimited mobile data for NHS staff.

While EE announced all NHS staff on its pay monthly contracts will get free unlimited data for six months to give them "one less thing to worry about" during the coronavirus crisis.
