Can't send or receive texts

[Garbonzo]

I transferred my phone number from Freedom Mobile to Public Mobile about 22 hours ago.  I can now phone and receive phone calls, but I can't send or receive texts.  I have tried powering down and powering up my Samsung Galaxy S10, but that didn't solve the problem.  I also upgraded to the latest version of Android 11 (One UI 3), but still no text messaging.  Is there something else I can do?

Public Mobile is dealing with issues when it comes to SMS on Android and iMessages and FaceTime and such. There is no ETA of when it will be resolved. Here is their announcement.

Hey Community,

We are aware that some of you are currently unable to successfully use iMessage and or FaceTime features,  and we understand how frustrating this can be. Our teams are working diligently to find the cause. 

In the meantime, please try troubleshoot steps:
Tap Settings > General > Transfer or Reset [Device] > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and will continue to keep you updated. 

Thank you,
