Transfering number

[Jmunroe]

Hi I transferred my phone number over 2 hours ago and still have no service. I responded to the text message confirming the transfer with yes.

@Jmunroe  When you login to your self serve account (incognito/private mode) you're unable to select Change SIM card from the Quick Link menu top right of account page?  The option to change SIM cards is also available when selecting Profile, then Change Number. 

However, if these options are unavailable then you'll need to ask customer support to change the SIM card for you.  I thought only suspended accounts didn't allow for changing SIM cards (plus other stuff), but it's possible you're unable to change it because it's a new activation.

Yes I believe it he SIM card is the issue. I may have bent it. I replaced it with another public mobile SIM card but am unable to change it in my account

@Jmunroe   do you have any service now?

if you do not have any service, if the phone status still showing "SIM not provisoned", "No Network", "No SIM", it could be a sim provisioning issue and not a porting issue

But first, can you confirm what band and model is your phone?  just want to confirm if it is compatible with PM network

Also, try to reseat your sim card (power off, take sim out and wipe it clean, then put it back firmly and power up)

And if you have another phone around, test the PM SIM card there

If your phone is compatible with PM network but still not connecting to the network, open a ticket with PM Support and they will confirm if the sim was provisioned properly

I had the same issue when I first set mine up. Best thing to do is reset the phone your public mobile sim is in as well as contact your provider to confirm the porting. I moved form Freedom and they quickly checked to see if the porting was authorized.

If you had your old sim in the phone and your old account was still in good standing, then you got that porting text and if you answered YEs within 90 mins you should be good, it may just be a simple reboot, if that still isn't working you may need to reinitiate process if it got stuck anywhere, a CSA can assist you in looking into that.

@Jmunroe 

Have you tried rebooting, resetting network settings or reinstalling SIM card and rebooting?
