As mentioned earlier, your PM account needs to be active.  You need to keep your PM SIM card in your phone to receive the confirmation text request and answer yes. For ports, use the following information:  PM account number, account holder name and phone number. Ideally avoid IME since this can lead to port failure requests.  You will need to ask your new carrier to resend the port request.

Yup, still active. Virgin tried twice.

have you ask Virgin to try to send the porting request a 2nd time?  

if already tried, then ask PM to see if they got the request.  

Just open ticket with PM using the Orange Chatbot icon on the lower right. (For 2FA when login, you might need to use email to receive if you cannot receive the text on the phone.)  Type the question Submit ticket and select Contact Us to get to ticket open screen       
Or message them using this link:

hi @Zeenat 

i assume your PM account is still active and can receive text?  Usually in this case, ask the new carrier, Virgin in your case, to resend the porting request
