New activation - Not working

[Kris2025]

It is been nearly 48 hours since I have made payment and activated a new mobile service. I did not port a number, this a brand new number given by PM.
As of now 

- incoming calls not working

- sms not working

I can not setup My Account, as PM sends OTP as SMS, and SMS is not working.

Opened a ticket two days back, support asked for my email address and sent them that. No response from support. 

Any thoughts on what I can do?

Almost five days it had taken to complete the setup, a lot of waiting and testing patience. Finally, I have got everything working. Like to thank some of the support reps, not sure I can mention their names. All good for now.

As I sent the code to the agent, the agent replied saying it would take 48 ours to change records, so that my account will reflect the new number assigned to me. For now the service works, so all good, I need them to do this so that I can setup PM mobile app. I find it interesting that I made payment on March 31st and today is April 4th and still waiting for them to to fix issue.

An agent shows up and says try changing the SIM card with another phone. I tell her to read the case transcript and that it will not make a difference as my sim is working on the phone, only that I do not receive OTP for setting up the app. 

Today I received an sms with a code and the sms asks to provide the code to CS Agent. Also got a message from an agent for this code. So sent that code to them.

The PB app setup first sends an OTP to my email address. I get that and enter it. It then sends another OTP to the number that was assigned to me. There is an option called Resend, however there is no option to resent to my email; there are only options to resend sms to the phone number or send a voice message. Both options are not good as both will goto the old number assigned to me.

on that code screen when you login , click Didn't receive code or Resend code, then click Send Email to get the code via email.  After you logged in, go to Profile (or Account page), click Manage EverSafe ID and then you can update the phone number

if you really cannot login, then PM needs to help with it.   Since you cannot properly login, you won't be able to open the preferred Chatbot ticket.  So, you will need to message them here:

I got a call from Koodo support. I was able to receive the call, so I think the service  is activated now.

Koodo support said the number assigned to me during setup is not available, that was the reason for the delay in activation. He has assigned a different phone number to me. 

When I try to setup a PM mobile app, the OTP is still sent to the number that was originally assigned to me. So unable to setup the app. I have updated the ticket with this issue, hoping to get a resolution soon.

[Kris2025]

Now the agent said something is wrong in the backend and she is passing to the technical support team, she has given me the tech teams support ticket number.

[Kris2025]

Agent asked me to put PM SIM card on another phone, I did that, still not able to receive calls and send/receive sms.

[Kris2025]

The agent asked me to reset network settings on my phone. I did that and restarted the phone, it is still not working. I am get a message “The number is not in service. This is a recording”.

[Kris2025]

The agent said they have reset network from their end and asked me to turn off and turn on the phone. Still it is not working 

incoming calls - not working

incoming/outgoing sms - not working

Which is the envelop icon?

I thought I will get email notification when they respond, right?

@Kris2025 

unfortunately, you must wait for their help now. Make sure to watch the little envelop icon on top right side of the page will be highlighted when they respond.

[Kris2025]

Hi, I created a followup ticket 4 hours back. No response to that as well.
