Hi everyone!

Quick update, I sent message to MarieHelene_L late night and she replied me this afternoon which is less than 24 hours. And after sent her another email with account number required, my PM can get incoming call and old sim is no service any more!

Thanks MarieHelene_L helping out and solve my problem before my Chatr payment day which is tomorrow!!

So far, I tested the call and date, very happy with the quality.

Thank you
Cheers!!

Hi @EstherBi!

Welcome to Public Mobile.

Sorry to hear that your port request is stuck.  As suggested by @SD08, sending a private message to the mods with the relevant info needed to resubmit the port request is the next step.  I wish you a quick resolution but keep in mind that there may be a delay as the mods are responding to the messages in the order they are received.  

Do let us know by posting here how it goes if you like.

Please don't create multiple threads for the same topic. That just creates more work for the moderators and/or oracles.

To clarify:  A port that completes without problems usually takes only 2-3 hours.  A stuck port requires moderator assistance.  Unfortunately, moderators are still dealing with a backlog of help requests from the Freedom-targeted promo, so a response from them can take as long as 2 days.

Porting can take 2-3 hours to complete. During that time, you'll be able to make calls, but not receive them.  If it takes much longer than that, you have a stuck port. In that case, you should send a private message to any moderator listed here:

Include PM SIM card number, e-mail address, the phone number you're porting, your account number with your previous carrier, and the authorized name exactly as it appears on that account.
