Out-port number from PM with no sim

I have to change service providers from Public Mobile.  It was supposed to be done by new service provider but  it didn't get ported.    I no longer have my PM sim.    What do I do?

hi @phil28 

this likely cannot be done.  You probably have to buy a new sim card, link to your account and then request porting out so you can receive the text to approve

but you can confirm with PM support

 submit a ticket with CS Agent using Chatbot here (please select email to receive the 2FA code):

If any issue with ticket submission, you can submit  ticket by direct message:

You have to have PM SIM in order to receive SMS from PM to authorize transfer.

Open a ticket and ask agent if they can help you.
Otherwise you would need to get new PM SIM 😞

@phil28, is your PM account still active? If it's not you won't be able to port out the number. If it is still active but you cannot receive the confirmation text you will need to contact a support agent.

You will need to open a ticket through the Chatbot:
https://widget.telus.tiia.ai/publicmobile/publicmobile.html
(and then type: Customer Support Agent)

Or, if you are having trouble with the Chatbot try sending a private message to:

(note: you will need to be logged into your Community account for this link to work)
