I recently transferred my number but am unable to make text messages or receive them even after the 5 hour mark

Change the Number on your Public Mobile Account back to a new one here:
https://myaccount.publicmobile.ca/en/account/profile/update/phone-number
After you've updated your Phone Number, resubmit the Port Request again and Follow all the steps following this link:
https://myaccount.publicmobile.ca/en/account/profile/transfer-phone-number
Put your old Providers SIM Card back into your phone and reply Yes to the Port Request text within 30 minutes.
Keep your old providers SIM inside your phone until it loses reception and than your Public one will be fully functional with your number ported over successfully.

I hope you replied with YES confirming you were porting your number over to PM with the old SIM in your phone.
If you didn’t, you will need to restart the porting process. A CS_Agent will do that for you.
If you did reply, just reboot your phone by powering off then power back on.
