Cannot transfer number from CTExcel

Yingwu

Hello, I’m trying to port in my number but my current service provider is not on Old Service Provider list. Since I have already paid the Public Mobile monthly fee, is it possible to issue a refund? Thank you!

Same here. Please also send me the agent’s number. Just wonder why they not add CTExcel  on their old Service Provider list. Thank you.

Hi,

 came across the same issue. Could you please send me the agent’s number?

Thank you.

@Karushifa we have confirmation that selecting Telus as the provider for porting from CTExcel won't work

Just transfer my number from CTEXCEL, when you choose the old provider, there's no China Telecom or CTExcel, simply select Telus and type in your account number which you already have or ask their agent. Hope this will help.

Hey Yeke, so I bumped into the same issue and calling the porting team actually didn't help. But I was able to get it resolved by messgaing CS_Agent with my IMEI and the Pin provided by CTExcel. Maybe you can try that too.

Hello @Yingwu 

Public Mobile is a pre paid service. I am 99.9% positive they will not refund your money. You can try to reach out to a CS agent and ask but....  it's buyer beware. They may say you should have confirmed first that your phone number was portable.

This is the link we use to confirm the number can be ported. Try it again.
