It was something on PMs end. I was working with them and they fixed it! Thanks to all that have helped!

So when you login to you PM account, in your profile, you see your new number?

When you call or text someone they see your new number with caller id?

In your phone's Settings > About phone you see your old number?

How do you know the port was successful? When you login to your account does it show the new number? What number do others see for caller id when you call or text?

@Fish1e  You can ask support if they have any other suggestions or if even Ana count refresh on there end might help

I tried swapping with my sons sim card and it didn't work. After reinserting the public mobile sim it still shows the old number before porting. It did show my son's phone number when I tried his sim.

hi @Fish1e 

it's a device settings, not PM related 

you might have to Reset the phone to make it right 

but , it might work if you put another active sim card in the phone to "clear" the old settings efire putting your PM sim card back

No it's a Samsung S10e that I stated in the message. Thanks.

@Fish1e  is this iPhone ? If so turn off iMessage and face time turn phone off for 2 mins and turn back on and turn on iMessage and face time to test
