Missing text messages

[Alexanderperry]

Hello Public Mobile support. I would like to have my line re-provisioned.  I am kindly requesting a porting refresh as I keep missing text messages from business colleagues, clients and family and it is increasing frustrating and affecting my business and relationships.

Toggling airplane mode does refresh your network connection, but it does not fully “re‑provision” your SIM in the carrier‑backend sense.  Toggling Airplane mode does NOT trigger backend provisioning.

Provisioning only happens when:

• You activate a new SIMYour carrier pushes an update
• You reboot after a SIM swap
• You manually request a refresh from the carrier

Provisioning is when your carrier activates or updates:

• Your plan features (VoLTE, 5G access, roaming).
• Your SIM profile (IMSI, authentication keys).
• Backend services (voicemail).

Hello @Alexanderperry 

There's an easy way to have your SIM or eSIM reprovisioned. All you do is place your phone into airplane mode for 10 minutes, then shut the phone off for 5 and then turn it back on and turn off airplane mode. This resets your SIM or eSIM back on to the Public Mobile network. What you can do is download a VOIP app like TextNow and send yourself text messages to see if they are coming though. Unless you have a secondary phone or a friend/co-worker who says their texts aren't coming through to text you and test your phone.

If a porting request was completed, there is no "porting refresh" can be done

can you confirm if you can receive incoming calls, this will confirm if the porting request was completed?

But before checking it, please remove your old provider sim card, or disable the old provider esim.   
And make sure PM sim is enabled and set as Primary. 
Perform a Reset network settings after a device reboot
Call yourself from another phone to confirm
