Ported from Bell Pay as you Go, can't send/receive texts or receive calls

[year_73]

I ported my number a few days ago from Bell Pay as you go.

- I can make calls.

- When I am called a message says "5ut1 You have reached a number that is not equipped for incoming service".

- When sending a text, it says "sending" and then appears to have sent, but the recipient never gets it.

- I am not receiving texts either.

If I look under my network settings (I am on Android), it shows Public Mobile for calls and texts, but it is grayed out.It says it is using Public Mobile for the SIM card.

I have rebooted, but it didn't help.

found my own solution Solved

I exchanged DMs with a CS Agent and were able to resolve the issue. The number had been properly ported. The agent refreshed the provisioning and after a restart the SIM worked.

@year_73 Sound like  a porting issue or provisioning

just to confirm, you have reply the PAT (Port Authentication Text) with a YES within 90 minutes?  

Usually, even porting is not completed, you should be able to make calls and text out, just not receiving.  If you have already replied the PAT within the time, I think it is a SIM provision issue and you need to open ticket with PM

Please open a ticket by clicking on the Bubble on the lower right or directly at : https://publicmobile.ca/chatbot.   Follow this to get to ticket open screen quicker

1. type: Activation
2. click "Activation isn't working"
3. click "Other/Error code 821"
4. click "Contact Us"
5. Click "Click here to submit a ticket"
6. you will then direct to another page to open ticket.

After ticket is submitted, make sure to check your Community Inbox(top right corner envelope icon) periodically for response from PM's CS Agent
