So my number I was not main account holder at another company so the names don't match so number can't be ported
I have two way to do so.
1) cancel the account and order new sim and re apply , but I won't get my fall discount anymore because the special has expired.
2) it pm can help me fix this name problem and everything will be fine.
What should I do?
I found out waiting is useless and I haven't got any response from anyone

@Denwong The Authourized Name and account number must exactly the same as on the account you are trying to transfer.

@Denwong

 

Sign into selfserve account:  https://selfserve.publicmobile.ca

 

Click on the Plans and Add-ons tab.  Then click on Change Number tab.  Then select the option to transfer existing number.  

 

Dont forget to check the "I am authorized ..." checkbox at the bottom.  If you get an authorization error, close the tab, sign back in again and click this checkbox first then enter number and info.  

 

If this option doesn't work then I am afraid you are stuck waiting for PM staff to respond to you.

@Denwong same as the frfist time i believe.

Hi @Denwong!

 

You are most certainly allowed to port your number to PM even if your name was not on the account with the previous carrier.

 

In the "Authorization name" field.. just need to enter the name of the account holder.  

 

So, if this was the only reason, then resubmitting the port request with the correct info is all you need to do.

You can get a hold of PM for Porting issues thru the below methods:

 

Webpage> Get help> contact us

 

and/or

 

Private message mod from here

 

I would recommend you to do both. Please take note that at the moment, there's probably going to be a week long wait for fixing this issue. You can also try message public mobile through facebook.I had better luck with faster response there.
