[Bosco1972]

Im a new subscriber and my calling and data work but my sms doesnt.  Ive seen that they are having that issue with new subscribers.  How do I contact someone to help me with this?  The chatbot is useless

@Bosco1972 

can you confirm if you activate with new number or port in number from another old provider?

For your SMS issue, PM is having problem provisioning text capability for new activations.  And if you are an iPhone user,  iMessage activation by phone number will also be impacted without a working SMS.

PM is working on a fix but for now, they can only resolve the issue on a case by case basis.  Please open ticket with PM support by messaging CS Agent here:
