Hi, I tried to transfer my phone and selected e-sim. Nothing works. I can’t make or receive calls or texts. No data. Nothing. And no reply on my ticket.

if you cannot even make calls with the esim, it is not a porting problem (at least not yet). let's try to get your esim working first, you should be able to make outgoing calls before porting is completed
When you setup , did you get to the eSIM installation step? Either the app will ask for your permission to do it for you, or you can get the QR code to install yourself.
If you missed the step to install by the app, there is a QR code in your Welcome email. Open it from a computer, or another device, then use your phone to scan it to install the eSIM profile on your phone.
Once you installed the eSIM profile, (or If you got passed that step eSIM installation step), try to reboot your phone once.
If it still does not connect and if you have another active sim on the phone, disable those non PM sim (eSIM/Physical sim) using the SIM Manager on the phone or simply remove the physical sim.
And make sure the one associated with PM sim and your phone number is enabled.
(On iPhone: Settings->Cellular , make sure the PM eSIM is set as Primary on "Cellular Plan Label" and "Turn on This Line" is toggled on)
Then click Reset All Networks on your phone and it will work. (Please note that Reset all Networks will also erase your saved Wifi and Bluetooth connections, but you just need to add them back after). Also, it is possible you have to reset it multiple times for it to work.
if it still does not work, please open ticket with PM support
