I just switched to Public. I did all the steps and Public said it’s all done. I responded to my prior carrier with a Yes. However I don’t have phone capability yet?  Help.

Hi @ BevGuy 

 

Thanks for your patience. Usually the port is completed in maximum 2 hours. Is your old sim still working?

 

If you are using a normal sim can you please try it on a different phone?

Is your Public Mobile SIM card in your phone?  If it is, try changing the active SIM if your phone has dual SIM cards (or remove the old carrier's SIM card.  If your Public Mobile SIM card is in the phone, try restarting your device.  If your phone still has no service, this could be either a device compatibility issue, or the account provisioning was never completed properly.  For the latter, only a Public Mobile customer support could fix that.

HI @BevGuy 

Try rebooting the phone. If you chose to have an eSIM instead of a physical SIM card, make sure it's set as primary and reboot the phone. If you have a physical SIM card, then try it in a different phone to see if that works. If it does, then put it in the phone you want. 

Side note, if you place your other providers SIM card in your phone, do you still have service?

You tried the sim card in a phone and no connection at all? 

Reboot your phone with the PM sim and Reset Network Settings again. And if issue persists, ask PM to check the activation on the system
