You will need to contact the carrier you originally got the number from. It has returned back to them.

Hello @Alicia8
It depends on how long ago it was you had the number. If it was under 89 days, you may be able to get it back by contacting customer service. If it's been more than 90 days, the number is gone.
The Public Mobile chatbot is currently unable to create trackable tickets for members who are unable to log in. So for this reason, please use the following link to contact customer service.

A Customer Service Agent will reply to your community inbox here:

During business hours (9 AM-10 PM EST) you can expect a response within 30 minutes, but it may be longer depending on current volumes.

How you lost your old number and how long you have lost your old number
If not too long, maybe PM can help. Since you cannot properly login, you won't be able to open the preferred Chatbot ticket. So, you will need to message them here: https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437
