I have been trying for hours to navigate this help service. I subscribed to a new service yesterday with an ESIM and thought I had ported my old number to my new provider. Now, my phone is useless. I cannot make a call, receive a call or text. I did the same procedure with my wife’s phone and it works fine.

In this type of situation, the above wouldn't be the issue, at at the very least there are other issues that need to be fixed first. The customer's outgoing call service isn't related to number porting.
@computergeek541 , thank you! I wasn’t sure.

My phone is now working. It was the network settings reset that did the trick.

I don’t know how to check my sim manager on my iPhone12 but I don’t think the eSIM is there.

Thank you for trying to help. I have an iPhone12. I am getting nowhere. Old provider has confirmed the transfer.

@wbos , I don’t know which phone you have so the settings could be in different places but try these please & see if it helps:
Edit: I may have misunderstood, are you a Public Mobile Customer or you are a Customer else where now that you ported your phone number to?

And maybe just a simple power off restart.

hi @wbos
check your sim manager and see if the eSIM is there, is it set to active?
then try "Reset All networks" and it should work
