@sanjeev400   be careful before you attempt to close your account!!!

 

First, your new provider, are you receive incoming calls on your sim card?  You receive a text and you replied yes, but it is still possible your number has not be ported yet.    

 

Put your new sim card  in a phone and see if you call receive calls there.  Check that before you decide to do anything

 

Yes, of course, you can also open ticket with PM Support and have them to check if your number was ported.  To me, the account was not closed, it means the number wasn't ported.   You replied YES, but it could be that some technical issue the number was still with PM

We are all customers and members like you here, and have no access to your account.

 

Did you leave the public mobile sim card in your phone to accept the SMS porting text @sanjeev400 ?

If not insert the public sim card back in your phone, and contact your new provider to resend the request to public, so that you can receive the text.

 

Cell ports can take 2-3 hours. Use the previous provider's SIM card to receive the porting transfer text for approval to port over to Public Mobile and to receive calls from until port is complete.

 

Does any (or all ) services work with your new provider?
