Try clearing cache and cookies and opened it incognito tab, then login again

Yup, porting out closes the account. It's the same with other providers.

Just keep an eye out on your credit card at the time your plan would have renewed if you stayed to watch for any charges from here. There are odd reports of charges continuing after porting out.

@marcj

Porting out automatically closes your self serve account.

@marcj

Sorry but once you port out, your account is closed and you can't login anymore.

Okay if you didn't Port out (yet) @marcj, you should still be able to access your self-serve account here.

Try clearing cache and cookies and opening an incognito tab
Try using a completely different browser from a completely different device which does not have stored/remembered credentials
If using a device with stored/remembered credentials on Chrome browser, sometimes when these autofill, the device also attempts to automatically log you in. If a device does this, do not tap the sign in button while it is trying to log you in as it will deliver an error message

Also, try tapping the highlighted area when logged into self-serve for a refreshed page version:

Well, you said changed provider and number so I jumped to my conclusion.

Is your service working here and does it say Public Mobile?

When you call someone does it show your intended number?

@marcj

Try logging into your rewards account instead to see if you have the same issue?

Re: Marc Dube

marcj — Tue, 03 Jan 2023 18:08:19 GMT

Yes I changed provider and lost my old sim card and cant veify my account via text

Re: Marc Dube

dust2dust — Tue, 03 Jan 2023 18:11:56 GMT

Your wording is still unclear. Did you change provider TO here or did you change provider FROM here? Or did you change your number internally here?

Re: Marc Dube

Handy1 — Tue, 03 Jan 2023 18:19:37 GMT

@marcj @I’m still not clear on which provider your are currently with and using at this moment , but if you dont have old SIM card to previous carrier you won’t be able to port your old number yourself , because that old sim is needed to reply YES to a confirmation text to port from old provider … so if you have already done so then you have infact already ported and that’s why you can’t sign in public mobile

If you ported your number to other provider, your PM is closed forever and you cannot log in anymore.
