Sorry @husna_bk   from your reply, I am not 100% sure I get what you said about whether the number was from another provider or not .  you said:

uhum no its from another provider, Tellus. 

it is a new number 

 

So, is it a new number you got from PM or a number transferred into PM from Telus?

 

Either way, maybe try to open a ticket with PM Support first and have them confirm:


1. For faster response (2-48 hours), Click on the bubble in the lower right to request CS Agent assistance, or use this direct link: https://publicmobile.ca/chatbot.

Start with typing "Submit a ticket", click "Contact Us", click "Other" from the choices, click "Click here to submit a ticket". Then follow to complete the ticket submission.


2. Or you can Send a private message to the CS Agent here: https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437


**Monitor your Community inbox, envelope on the top right, after ticket is opened.  CS Agent will reply and work with you  via messaging there

@husna_bk -

Try manually forcing your mobile connection on your phone to 3G or WCDMA ONLY temporarily to see if services improve.

 

Also - This may not apply...but, do you live by a Canada/USA boarder? If so, turn off your Roaming option on your device.

@husna_bk    as many said, sound like a porting issue

 

you can call out without issue?  and data no problem?

 

If you have just activated and requested porting?  you replied the text from the previous provider with a YES within 90 minutes?

There is a number to call for Porting status, I can message you via Community inbox.  check Envelope icon on top right

In order to be able to better help you, I have a few questions:

 

(1) How long have you had this number?

(2) Did you get it as a new number from PM, or did you port it in from another provider?

(3) Are you able to make outgoing calls without problems?

Did you bring your number from a previous provider? Or did you select a number at activation? Is this a recent problem? Did the services used to work?

What your PM account says? Is it status Active?

Can you send/receive SMS? How about Internet?

When it stopped working and did you have regular service before that?

Are you at the same place as usual or you out of range of cell towers?
