thanks softech! CS Angent resolved the issue.

@helen8988  so, if you tried on different phones, you did a sim reseat and it still not working then.

At this point, I think you really need to open ticket with PM Support, they can reprovision your sim/account and that could resolve the issue

If you have not done so, these are the two ways to engage PM support:

1. If you have access to My account: At https://publicmobile.ca/chatbot.

Start by typing "Submit a ticket", then click "Contact Us", Then click "Other", then click "Click here to submit a ticket ↗" 

2. If you don't have access to My Account or have trouble with Chatbot: Private message CS Agent at: 

      https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437

**Monitor your Community inbox (envelope icon on the top right) after the ticket is opened.  CS Agent will reply you there

I restarted many times of my phone, and also tried different phones. Al same

@helen8988  - have you restarted your phone with the public mobile sim card in your phone yet since activation?

It would not be a bad idea to perform a reset of the device's network settings also upon changing providers.

@_joe - try above also.

If know that if the customer hadn't ask for a new phone number and asked for a number to be ported in , there could have been a porting issue, but a such an issue wouldn't have cause the failure of outgoing text messages.

[helen8988]

No. It's a new sim card ordered from publicmobic.ca and enabled online with a new number.

[Outdoorsman]

@helen8988 ok you may have a provisioning issue with your account you

need the help of a service rep

There are two ways to contact a customer service agent , open a ticket through Simon here https://publicmobile.ca

No, this a new number. And I enable it on August 24. The first a few days are normal. Just found the issue in 2 or 3 days ago.
