So its monday morning, my phone had worked most of the time on the weekend. 

Now it is showing no No Service

I have tried to restart the phone, start in safe mode, reset setting to no avail. 

I have tried a different sim, works fine. 

Any other thoughts on what to try?

the line is dead again.  Same thing happened week ago with the porting initially. 

If you can not make a network connect my phone will not give me the option of selection a network connection. 

I did try, and tried again. 

@zulup   If you are not connecting to the network , cannot make outgoing calls, it is not a porting issue

And it does heart to change the network connection to manual unless you travel to US later.  Nothing wrong, try it

If you were close to the border then you would be getting the welcome to the US text when you inadvertently connect to a US tower. You didn't say that happens.

doesnt work in another phone. 

just tried to call the number it says not in service. 

I can not pick a different connection it will not give me that option. 

@zulup   you live close to the US border.  Try also to change the Network connection to Manual and pick Public Mobile and see if it connects

@zulup 

have you a different unlocked phone handy you can try that sim in it ?

@zulup 

sounds like your sim has reached end of life. Get a new one, then add it to your account to retain same phone number.

nvm...didn't read "Since Porting..."

@zulup  which area you are at?  City and province?

Did you check if your account status is active?  To avoid browser cache confusing,  please login My account using Incognito mode to confirm account status

If it shows On Hold (Suspended) , then it is a payment issue.  Click "Pay Now and Resume Services" to make a manual payment 

If it shows active,

  • first try to reboot the phone
  • If that does not work, change the Preferred network type or network mode to 3G only or WCDMA only and see if it works
  • Try to click Reset All Networks and see if it helps
  • and do you have another phone to test the PM sim ? just to make sure it is not a device problem.  Also, that can force a sim card re-provision and it could resolve the problem
  • Also, try the phone in another area if possible, it could be just a local network outage

and if nothing works, open ticket with PM support for them to investigate further:
