Hi,
Need your help. I went to buy a cellphone and the store has convince me to port my Public mobile number to Koodo. They tried for more than an hour in 2 separate days and they messed up my Public mobile number. Used this number for several years . The porting of number failed . I cant used my public mobile number , I can't log in into my account and they have not ported my number to koodo. Telus(koodo) representative contacted me for 3 days now, and ask me to contact the public mobile to reactivate my account. I don't know how to contact them. Their mistake and they want me to contact public mobile. How do you reactivate your mobile number, ( I paid until Jan 4, 2022-contract ends)? Should the Koodo people be the one contacting Public mobile , instead of me? Thanks for your help

Did you initiate porting at Koodo side?
If yes, you should receive SMS from PM asking you to confirm your request.
If you replied YES on porting request, your PM account is closed; no way to recover it; phone number is gone to Koodo.
If no, how could Koodo mess up (deactivate) your PM account (even though they are both under the Telus)? Unless Koodo rep has some kind of access to PM accounts which will be very dangerous and strange...
Regain your access to PM account first, see what it says; is account active or not.
CSA can help you with that.

Do you want to leave public mobile? If you didn't reply YES to the porting authorization text you can change your mind. Did you open a postpaid account with koodo or prepaid?

@Jojo1205 - whoa, sorry to hear this.
This sounds like a Koodo issue. Telus owns both Koodo and Public Mobile. I am not sure why you need to reactivate your Public Mobile account again...unless it was deactivated for over 90 days....is that the case?
I would escalate this to Koodo, if I were you.
If you really need Public mobile representatives, you will need to submit a ticket this way to CSA:
