Number transfer problem

Bala44 — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 08:53:27 GMT

I cannot receive any calls, I can only make calls and send messages. I can not confirm the message that it sends to your old SIM regarding number transfer because my old SIM's plan is cancelled, and it is lost. I tried messaging a CS_agent but they are saying the only option is to reactivate my old SIM plan and do the transfer process again which is a loss for me. So, is there any other way I can make my number fully functional?

it is possible to get help from there. As far as I know there where some issues with the porting system, national wide in the past days, maybe this is the reason why your port was not processed properly,

Did you cancel your old providers service account before you ported your number in or after? Or did you have a prepaid account that you have not paid for so your account is not active? Who is your old provider? If it is telus or koodo then you can port your number from an inactive account but you must phone them to verbally authorise the port and have the CSA agent reinitiate the port request.

Fill us in with your situation and we can advise you of any further options you may have.

There are other regular members posting the phone number as well that I have informed of this request by pm management. They choose to ignore it. Maybe they will see the error of their ways after the next forum sweep?

Edit:

As far as I have been informed by more than one Oracle the pm management request still stands. CSA advice has to be taken with a grain of salt.

AGAIN!!?? 🙂 Ah faith in one answer from one person strikes again.

@Anonymous: I have also posted the number as I think the request is stupid seeing as how the number is otherwise everywhere. But there have been "sweeps" of the forum removing posts and their bravos with them in the past. So you're at your own risk. I think to add the proviso that it's for porting help only and not any other service issues should be acceptable. But what do I know.

Where do they find these CSA's and how do they train them anyway? That's what I'd like to know!

Where's their handbook kept?

@Quigley : Indeed. It's crazy frustrating for regulars. But most regulars know that asking the CSA's for every little thing often goes wrong. There's no consistency. Then ask questions of higher ups and...crickets.

darlicious — Wed, 27 Oct 2021 22:59:12 GMT

Well there is only one way to find out.

@J_PM

Could you please clarify pm's request on this matter? Yay or Nay?

Enquiring minds would like to know?

@Anonymous...I'm apologizing for even mentioning it. Sounds like it was one of those rules that we can now ignore. If you have the blessing of CSA's to give those numbers out, then I was wrong to bring it up.

I think that the " higher ups " your referring to are just interns in training, waiting to be put out to pasture.

No offence, if their listening 🎧

That is my feeling too. We are not (for whatever reason) to publicly publish well known number thus if I have to provide it I to by private message.

@Meow : Most of the regulars here know all too well that responses from the CSA's can very often be wrong. Just getting one answer from one CSA is not sufficient. The "back of the house" cross-communication seems to be rather lacking.

Even if S--S posts the reply they got, I would still not believe it. It would be better coming from Jade_S but who knows if and when she/he/they might reply.

I happen to think the "rule" is stupid. The number is everywhere anyway. So what does it matter. But that's just me.

The only absolute directive ever received about this was from Tiana and she said that it was strictly forbidden to share the phone number and not to post it on these message forums as it was an internal company phone number. However, at a later time, the number quietly showed up in the help pages and was then removed. Since then, the official response from Public Mobile has been that they do not really not want the phone number shown here.
