Hello Community!
New to Public Mobile, and I wanted to port my number to essentially cancel my service with my current provider. I got all set up, subscribed to a service (text only), picked a number, and away I went. I followed the instructions on how to port my number, but I made a mistake, I entered the wrong number.
So, it was like this :
I have phone #1 with Koodo - this is the number I want to port
I have phone #2 with Virgin
I entered the number from phone #2, but the account info from phone #1 (D'oh!)
To add to mess, I logged in to Public Mobile tonight, and said to myself - Shoot! I figured the first port wouldn't go through since the account info was wrong, so I went to port the correct number, with the correct account info - I screwed up again, and typed the wrong number! But this number is my wife's! Don't ask... Now, if I go to the screen to port, the number I want to port it says this :
We were unable to transfer the phone number you entered. Try one of the following options:
- Make sure you entered your number correctly.
- Select a new number.
- Contact the Public Mobile Community for further assistance.
So here I am.
Have I totally screwed up, or do I just have to wait and try later?
Thanks!

@patpond, if you are lucky, the port got stuck and nothing happened. The easiest way to check is to try your old services and see if they are working. In the mean time, you should also contact the moderator team and have them confirm what has happened.
