Esim phone number not updating to ported number

Heather80

I just signed up for the $34 / 40 gig plan and ported my number from Virgin. I received all the messages and answered yes to Virgin. I got a message from PM to restart the phone to finish the process. I did that. My profile page shows the correct phone number but the esim still has the temp phone assigned to it. I can't send/receive calls or messages. This is on an IPhone 13. @CS_Agent

What was the resolution for this? I’m having the same issue.

Telus can't redo the port. The port has been completed. Is there a number to call for tech service for esim help?

Alright, you can also always message a CS Agent using the following link

Make sure to monitor the envelope icon on the top right since that is where you will receive the response.

Thanks but this didn't work. I'm on hold with the porting department.

Also, I just transferred over a friend's virgin number today. He was facing an issue just like you. I went into his settings, went to cellular and I found out the the old virgin SIM was still active. We removed that, restarted phone and it worked for him. This may or may not work for you.

Hi @Heather80 

I am sending you a porting team phone number, check your envelope icon on the top right. Give them a call and ask them to redo the port process.
