I created PM account and ported number from Bell but I only got the text from Bell to confirm the port after I setup PM account and now my phone only shows PM signal but I can only get and call certain numbers.

You'll need to open a ticket to contact a Public Mobile customer support agent using the chatbot.

My data also doesn't work.

I did all this last night so sufficient time has passed that I shouldn't have these issues if everything went smoothly.

Ideally, what's supposed to happen is everything working properly the very second that your Bell Mobility service stopped working.  Porting a wireless number to another wireless provder usually finishes within a few hours.  While what you're experiencing isn't supposed to happen, there are sometimes issues such as this or callers hearing out of service messages or busy signals for a short period of time.  I've had that happen (a constant busy signal) porting a number that was supposedly complete, and it fixed itself by just waiting about 30 minutes.

Still can only call certain numbers.  Not all are working.
