PM number change

antokavna — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 08:40:11 GMT

Hey guys, I recently changed the number on my public mobile account, As I am moving province. It has been two days now and I am still unable to make or receive calls and texts. On my PM account the new number is there but my old one is still showing when I go into my phone settings on my iPhone. Does anyone know what might speed up the transition process. Thanks in advance!

It may sound trivial, but have you tried restarting your phone? Much like a computer, an update requires a restart.

If the problem is still not solved after that, I believe your best option is to get in touch with a PM agent by creating a ticket.

While there is something to do with changing your phone number in your Apple ID it shouldn't be affecting your services such as calling and texting. As suggested by @EricPellerin contacting customer service is best at this point.

Click on the chat bubble at the bottom right corner of your screen and type " no service after number change" and "human" and follow the prompts to submit your ticket via Simple--Simon. Keep an eye on the envelope icon at the top right corner of your screen for a little number to pop up indicating a reply from a CSA. Responding promptly will speed up service times.

If rebooting of the phone does not work, try network reset of phone. You could also try the SIM card in another working phone (ie. Android). If the new number works in the other phone, it is a setup issue with your iphone. If the new phone number does not work, then something likely went wrong with number change and contacting CSA is required.

@antokavna did you lost the ability to even make outgoing calls after the request to change phone number? You have another phone around to put the SIM into it and test it?

This sound to me as if it could be a provisioning issue. This may sound silly, but try making a payment (of any amount) to your Public Mobile account. In the past, this has been known to sometimes restore service.
