Someone (maybe me) fat fingered my number, and my subscription and eSIM is associated.

Somewhere in the process of transferring my number from Rogers, the number associated with my eSIM had two digits of the exchange reversed, from xxx-493-xxxx to xxx-943-xxxx.    I believe Rogers transferred the number as I received the text and responded to it, and my Rogers account now shows cancelled.       When I call the number that shows up for my eSIM , some unknown person answers.    I can make calls from the phone, and the caller id shows the fat-fingered number.  If I call my old Rogers number I receive an “out of service” message.   I have followed all the help, including deleting and redownloading and reactivating.  The “fat fingered” number is associated with the replaced and reactivated eSIM.

How can I fix this mess?   Who is answering the 943 number?   I would think that this, at a minimum, a security problem as I can make a call using someone else’s number.  How do I transfer my old number into my subscription?


I can be reached at xxx-477-xxxx.

thanks for your help…

@cc1673 

There would have been a text sent to the wrong number confirming to port over to PM. Most like the owner of that number would ignore or delete the text.

I would suggest you contact Roger and explain your issue and if your number was ported to PM then contact a CS_Agent to straighten this out and resend the confirmation text.
