Porting issue (from Koodo)

[srslymico]

Hi,

I successfully activated my PM sim and tested it. Everything was working fine with the new temporary number (Phone calls, text messages, data test).

Followed instructions and logged onto the PM self serve -> Plans/Addons -> Change pone number. Website displayed that the number change was successful, but I never got the text message saying that the port was done.

Now the PM sim is not working at all. Good thing is that my Koodo sim is still working.

I really want to get this switch done and over with. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hey @srslymico, 

Thank you for your patience, 

Can you reboot your phone, please? everything should be working now. 

I needed to create a new account for you in order to rectify asap, don't worry everything remains the same. 

You will only need to create your self-serve account again: here https://selfserve.publicmobile.ca/self-registration/

Let me know how it goes.

Thanks,

Shazia

Hello @srslymico, 

I'm sorry to hear about this, 

Port completed, but there is a little issue with the account itself, a ticket has been sent to our tech team ref #: 7392170

Please periodically try rebooting your phone in about 1 hour from now and everything should be working fine. 

Thanks,

Shazia

Where you on Koodo prepaid or post paid? 

[srslymico]

Yes i did use a different email

seems like a silly question, but did you choose a different e-mail address to sign up for PM. I heard if you use the same e-mail you used for koodo it causes a porting problem (I ported over from koodo too)

[srslymico]

I see, hopefully it goes through sooner rather than later.

I'm expecting an important phone call today.

Sometimes it takes some time for porting to complete. If nothing changes in the morning, you will need help from a mod.
