Issue with Porting

Julia902

Hi!  I just subscribed today and requested to port about 7 hours ago. I approved the request from my old provider, haven’t cancelled service or removed their SIM. I didn’t get a confirmation text from Public and just realized I can’t text or make calls. Is there a way for me to confirm if there is a problem with the port?  Thanks.

you don't have any old esim right?  Make sure the PM sim shows active, and change the PM sim label from travel to Primary,  then Reset network settings and you can test outing calls again

Hi. Thanks for responding. I did reply yes and haven’t removed my sim but I can’t text or make outgoing calls. I can receive texts and calls though?!?!? I can’t figure out how to make a call to reach the porting support number. My primary network shows unavailable but my travel network shows Public. Thanks…

Thank you for responding!  I haven’t removed my old SIM and I got an eSIM from Public but I can’t make phone calls to contact porting support. In settings my Primary network shows ‘not available’ and my Travel shows ‘Public’. Thanks again.

If you replied with YES to your previous carrier that you are porting number to PM.

You old SIM will continue to work until porting process is completed. Your old account with your old carrier will automatically close once porting is completed.

your old service provider sim still working?  if it stopped working, insert PM sim and test

or there is a porting assistance team you can call and ask for update.  I can't post the number here, but I will message the number to your community inbox.  Please check and call them
