hi @Pencils 

your card was compromised and your last PM payment was likely reversed and hence you are probably owing PM's money

contact PM support and get this sort out and you will then be able to port to Telus, a much faster way to resolve it

you can submit  ticket by direct message:

The problem is with Public Mobile.  Our account was suspended after our credit card was compromised.  We are trying to port it over to Telus, who have a plan that is less than half what we were paying PM.  Telus needs the account number to port our old number over, and we cannot log in to PM to get it.  They will not tell us or Telus (their parent company) what it is.  They are either astonishingly stupid, or just pissed off  that we are going somewhere else.  I will be reporting them to CRTC.

@Pencils 

What phone do you have?

If your phone is not on PM's VoLTE whitelist ( https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/on/get-help/articles/volte ) , then it will be using 3G for voice and it might be affected by this:

Telus is currently  refarming the 850MHz band 5 spectrum and hence you are left with 1900MHz for voice calls.
https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/get-help/articles/850-turndown

While one compatible band is still sufficient, reality is  1900 MHz could have less coverage, depending on your proximity to a tower and hence you are seeing a poor or no coverage with voice  (Data is not impacted as your phone has the compatible bands on 4G/5G)

If this is really what affecting your voice calls, there is really nothing much you can do other than getting a phone that is on PM's own VoLTE whitelist.
