@Tzvi , your new carrier is incorrect about the number transfer status.  Once a number transfer is completed successfully, the old service will be disabled.  The fact that the Public Mobile service is still functional means the number transfer was not successful.  You need to resubmit the number transfer from your new service and reverify it on the Public Mobile end.  No point in reaching out to Public Mobile support as transferring out is managed by the receiving carrier.

The PM SIM will continue to work until porting is completed. This could take up to 4 hours.

hi @Tzvi 

no, if the number is ported, your PM service would stopped and account closed

but you can confirm with PM and see if they got the port request

hi @Tzvi 

question is if PM service still working? if you get inbound calls with your new carrier?  

if PM service is still active, the port was not done.  You need to call back to the new carrier and tell them

@Tzvi  might just take a few hours for the new guys to fully provision then. Give it till tonight and see if PM deactivates by then. If not, check again with your NEW provider.

@Tzvi  if you are on your way out, this lies in the hands of the incoming provider. You will need to reach out to the new provider in order to fix this issue.  Hope tis helps.

hi @Tzvi 

did you get a text  for port authorization? did you reply yes within 90 mins?

even you replied, it would take another hour or two. Try reboot the phone with the new sim card and test calls again
