Transfer In

I tried porting my number to Public Mobile from Eastlink. I didn’t reply to Eastlink’s text message within 90 minutes so they rejected the transfer. Eastlink now wants me to reinitiate the transfer. How do I do that?

@ross_smu

Did Eastlink indicate why the request was rejected? You can try and reply again that sometimes will re-initiate the transfer request. Alternatively, try to go online in Self Serve to see if you can re-initiate the transfer.

Porting is a "pull" request by the new provider (ie. Public Mobile to pull it from Eastlink) - I'll send you a private message with a phone number to call if you're still having issues, only for Porting issues.

Oh, and...

Welcome to the Public Mobile Community! 🙂

@ross_smu instead of opening a ticket with PM, try to call the porting support team first, they will advise the current status and will re-trigger the SMS process. (I guess you got the number already from other members above?) Just make sure this time you put your Eastlink SIM in a phone, powered on and reply .

After replying the test, the port should completed within 2 hours.

@ross_smu

Did you leave the Eastlink SIM in the phone while waiting for the SMS text?

You need to do this first and when you confirm with YES then power off the phone and switch to the PM SIM.

Click on a CS Agent to restart the porting process by clicking on the SIMon chat button and type in Create a Ticket for the CS Agent to help you.
