Issues porting number from Rogers

JVX1-1

Hello,

I rejoined Public Mobile last night and cancelled my Roger's account today. I moved from a physical SIM (Rogers) to an eSIM (Public) for the first time, but am unsure that is the issue. I suspect the issue is that my phone number may not have ported over completely.

I confirmed the porting request with Rogers and heard nothing from Public while having both my SIM and eSIM in. I eventually turned off my SIM and tested: I was able to make calls, access data, etc., so thought nothing of it. I later learned I was not able to send or receive texts. I also learned I cannot receive calls.

This morning, I turned my SIM back on and a deluge of texts came in. One was from Public re: confirming port request, but did nothing when I responded 1. I followed the hyperlink provided and was told that no request was in the system. I also checked and my phone number shows up on my eSIM, as well as my all my account info. But, I am pretty sure its not ported properly as calling myself from another phone provides a message said the number wasn't assigned.

Can someone help?

Other info, it is a Google Pixel 7. I have tried a factory reset to no avail.

@JVX1-1 

If you are porting your number from Rogers to PM. Your Rogers account will automatically close when porting is completed so you don’t need to cancel with Rogers. Your Rogers account must be active to port your number over to PM.

I think you must have jumped the gun in cancelling your Rogers account.

You will need to contact a CS_Agent to see if porting is in process. You might have to contact Rogers to reactivate your account so you will get a confirmation text from them that you are porting over to PM.
