Phone number change

I changed my number (stayed with public mobile only) but I am not able to call or receive the incoming call. I can send the text message though but could not receive a text message. When my services will start?

Do you mean you switched providers from another mobile provider to public mobile, and you also wanted to move your prior phone number here?

 

If so, did you reply "YES" to the port authorization request from your old provider?

 

If not, to re-initiate the port, click here: https://urlshortner.tiia.ai/Lc9xk8

 

Then, make sure to place your prior provider SIM card in device, await text for port authorization, reply "YES", then replace with your newly activated Public Mobile SIM card.

 

Reboot your device, and you should be good to go.

Set to telus? What are you saying?

 

@Virat 

Did you activate and port your phone number in? Or change your phone number? Can you confirming you have the following services working or not?

 

  1. Calling: In?  Out?
  2. Texts: SMS: in?  Out?  MMS: In? Out?
  3. Mobile data: Yes/No

Do you see Public Mobile at the top left of your phone's home screen?
