Stuck with activation

Trying to activate a new PM plan while transferring an old number from a non-PM account. Have replied "yes" to the transfer message text, but the activation browser page still says "Linking chosen plan to your account" and it's already been half an hour. How do I fix this?

@jwong25 you replied within 90 minutes? usually after a YES reply , the porting would complete within 2 hours.   So, your 30 minutes wait was still within reasonable time.

 

However, i think there don't process porting 24/7..  So, if the port still not completed, you might wait till tomorrow morning closer to noon.

 

There is a number you can call to confirm your porting status.  But the office is closed and it is only answer by the system at the moment.  You probably want to call tomorrow instead.  I will message you the number, check your Community inbox, envelope icon on top right.

If you already replied with YES, power off the phone then swap the SIM and wait a few minutes then power the phone back on.

@jwong25 

It does not sound like you entered any payment info. yet or passed the payment section....so, I would suggest you shut it down, and try again.

 

When you do try again, open a TAB in incognito mode, this can help with finicky activation issues.

 

Also, you can make sure your number is portable to Public Mobile, here:

See helpful info. here: https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/bc/get-help/articles/port-fraud-protection

 

 

EDIT: HOLD on, you said you already responded YES to accept the transfer of the phone number to Public Mobile...sorry, than you already activated.

 

So, what ARE you trying to do...?

Change your plan already? Why so soon?

Where you porting over a number from an account that was ACTIVE?
