I have successfully activated my account and Sim, my phone says I have Public Mobile Service, Buy I cannot receive or send text messages, and when I call says to call *611.

@laboursome - if your account status says Active, and you have tried restarting your phone and still nothing...then, what about trying your SIM card into another compatible device to see if services work?

 

If services work in another phone, try performing a reset of your device's network settings. 

And, ensure it is compatible:

If you are using an iphone, and you activated with a new number, try de-registering the old number on the device.

Set up your phone number On your iPhone:

  1. Go to Settings > Messages and make sure that iMessage is on. You might need to wait a moment for it to activate.
  2. Tap Send & Receive. If you see “Use your Apple ID for iMessage,” tap it and sign in with the same Apple ID that you use on your Mac, iPad, and iPod touch.
  3. In the "You can receive iMessages" section, make sure that your phone number and Apple ID are selected.
  4. Go to Settings > FaceTime and make sure that your phone number and Apple ID are selected in the "You can be reached by FaceTime at" section.

@laboursome 

If you picked a new number, did you reboot your phone by powering it off and then back on?

If you ported your old number to PM, did you reply to the text confirming your are porting over to PM? There is a 90 minute window to reply. If you missed this window, you need to contact a CS_Agent to restart the process.
