@Sammyb7000 I'm not sure how you re-activated an account that was cancelled, you should not have been able to log in to it if it was closed. Was id "closed" within the past couple of months or so so not 90 days or more since the last payment expired? Is the old sim from another carrier actually active, do you intend to run two phone numbers on the same phone or is the old carrier number being ported to your PM account? If the old carrier sim no longer works either way you could take it out and restart the phone.

Re activated as in had an account previously and I believe canceled because my old phone did not work w e Sim. My physical Sim card is NOT public mobile.

@Sammyb7000 You said you have re-activated your account, was it in suspension for some reason? You also said you have an old sim still in the phone, is that an old Public Mobile sim or from another carrier?

OK. Go into your settings and find your eSIM and set it as your primary number and then reboot.

I don't think "insufficient balance" is a message you'd get from Public Mobile. Is that message from your old cell provider or Public Mobile ? Could be the port process didn't complete successfully.

Can you try your SIM card in a different phone? If that option isn't available, perhaps you can find out from Public Mobile what's happening.

Hello @Sammyb7000
Have you tried rebooting the phone?
