Porting Failure

We ported my son's number over from Rogers. It worked successfully for a while. Rogers was notified and the account was removed, my son then had his number for a short while. All of a sudden he was given a new random number. Now we have no idea how to get his old number back and the online tools for 'change number' just say error. 

Also can't seem to find any tech support number to help with this issue. Does Public Mobile not have phone support?

Did you leave the old Rogers SIM in the phone and reply with YES that you are porting over to PM?

Anyway, contact the PM CSAgent to port your old Rogers number to your son’s account.

Make sure that you have the old sim card in your phone when you're porting your phone. You should get a message from your old carrier asking to confirm if you would like to port your number. Your reply should be: YES.

 

The confirmation message can take a few minutes to come in. You have 90 minutes from the time of request.
