@Indiana1 

If you pick a new number during activation. Just reboot your phone by powering off then back on.

If you ported your number from another carrier. You must reply to the text from your previous carrier confirming you are porting over to PM.

If that didn’t work then it could be a provisional issue with your SIM so click on the Chat icon and type in Submit a Ticket for an agent to reset your SIM.

Your $10 credit will be in your account in 72 hours.

@Indiana1  Apparently imessage and facetime issue is a recently known issue.  PM has suggested trying this,

Tap Settings > General > Transfer or Reset [Device] > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
