@AlexJe I’ll send you the porting team number private message and they can re trigger the port request for you

By the time a Public Mobile forces a customer to take a new phone number, the port request would have been cancelled. I do not believe that the porting team can help.

After a cetain amount of time of a number porting not being completed, a new number being assigned happens auatomically. Before trying again, please make sure that the nubmer can actually be transferred to Public Mobile. Which city is the phone number from? Not all phone numbers can be brought here.

@computergeek541 So maybe in that case OP should see if there old service provider still works ? I’m guessing they still have service with old provider because port didn’t complete . Or the miner just wasn’t eligible in first place
