Was this a ported number? If so, you may need to wait a few hours for the porting to be completed.

Otherwise, please get in touch with @CS_Agent by sending them a private message, explaining the issue in detail. All the best!

@Pipcan are you on PM already yourself? No problem with you with the incoming calls?

What phone (brand and model) your wife is using?

Did you try to reboot it one more time?

@Pipcan

If you ported in your wife's phone number did you reply YES to the porting authorization text within 90 minutes of receiving it with her old sim card in the phone ? If her old sim card still works and you can access the old account (its not closed) then you will have to reinitiate the port request by calling the telus porting department with your old account # ready. Put the old sim card back in the phone to recieve the text.

If you haven't been sent the porting department number already just ask..... once authorized the port will complete in two hours or less. Once the old sim card stops working and you can recieve incoming calling your port will have completed.

In my personal experience, I've had that issue appear when I initiated a number port, so hopefully, you get this solved quickly.

@Pipcan are you able to provide whether or not your wife activated with a:

1 - NEW number, if so, rebooting the phone and performing a reset of the network settings are an important thing to do here once the SIM card is in the phone.

Can you try the SIM into your phone to see if there are any services?

2 - Ported a number from another provider:

a) a cell port can take 2-3 hours to complete.

b) a landline/voip number can take around 7 days (usually less)

Do not cancel your provider's previous account.
Incoming calls are usually the last to port over.

IF needed due to a stuck PORT or new number not working - Two ways to contact CSA:

1- Put in a ticket through SIMon Bot (usually faster method to get in contact with the Public Mobile Customer Support) by clicking on the bottom, right chat bubble.
OR
2- Private message the Customer Support here (slower method): https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437

@Pipcan She can make outgoing calls without problem?

does her Rogers SIM still work?

When incoming calls goes to VM, you sure it is PM VM and not Rogers VM?
