I’m a new customer and I ported my number from lucky mobile over to public mobile. I received my SIM card today (March 1, 2024) and I paid for everything (phone plan and SIM card). I couldn’t receive or send calls or text messages and the automated system keeps telling me that the phone plan has not been paid for. I also got a text message saying that I have successfully created a new pin when I did not create a pin at all. When I tried to login to PM I couldn’t, the system kept refreshing and kicking me out with the message “forbidden A1”. I restarted my phone, and reset the network but nothing worked. Pls find a solution as soon as possible.

Thanks mayor @hTideGnow It is all working now.

thanks for the update @LindaW65 Yes, after you replied Yes , the old carrier account will be cancelled but it could be another hour before the port is done, so the text will be going nowhere

Just to keep you all informed, after speaking with the number transfer people, they were able to move the number to public mobile, but to confirm the account, public needs to send a 6 digit code. Don't reply yes to the port request until you confirm your account with public mobile. I said yes to the port request but can't access my public mobile account to make a payment in order to activate the service. I feel like a CS agent will be able to send me a temporary code, but I just need to wait for them to be online.

Hi Linda i did the same as you I gave the CS AGENT SIM CARD number and all other information but still I have the same issue

So the CS Agent was able to fix the account issue. I had to send the sim card number, and other information to verify the account. I think I was issued a temporary number because now when I log in, the 2 factor code is being sent to the new number and not my email address so I can't login to check to see if things are resolved. The next step is to call the porting department who I am currently on hold with.

I am having the exact same issue @Ahmadnoori. Nice to know I am not alone in this. If you can figure out a solution, please post it here. I have tried different browsers, restarting phone, deleting app. It must be on their end. I have submitted it to the CS agent, still no answer.
