It could be an incomplete port. PM porting support team can help. I have sent you the porting support team number. Please check your Community inbox (https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/privatenotespage), check for the number and call
There could be a porting issue, but the porting team call centre cannot help and should not be contacted at this time. Having no service at all with Public Mobile isn't a porting issue. That needs to be corrected first.

In your phone? You need to place your Public Mobile SIM card in your phone and reboot the phone. And if that doesn't work, the first response has another option.

Did you get a SIM card or eSIM? And as silly as this sounds as it has happened time and time again, are you sure the Public Mobile SIM card is in the phone? Also, do you have another phone you can try it in?

Hey @Piper2025
Have you tried rebooting your phone? Another thing is since you were with Bell, go into your Settings, find Network Settings and reset them. Then reboot.
If you're still not connecting, reach out to a CS Agent this way.
Please use this link to the Public Mobile Chat Bot which will direct you to creating a trackable ticket. Enter CONTACT US into the chat and follow the prompts.
