It's better if you can put your Sim card in another phone and text or make a call but if not even the second Sim slot of dual sim phone helps otherwise remove the Sim card for 10 minutes then reseat it and reboot your phone.

HI @Icey7860 are you in Alberta or Sask?
They have voice (and text?) problem 2 days ago
Try to reseat your sim card with a reboot

Did you activate with a new number and are you an iphone user?
If so, deregister the old number on the iphone: https://selfsolve.apple.com/deregister-imessage/
And set up your new phone number On your iPhone:
EDIT, did you try a reset of your device's network settings in the 'everything' you tried? If not, try that and see if texting works.

@Icey7860 Text from friend should work almost immediately (if any delay would be less than 24 hours)
Text from system could take as many as 7 days to work
For your situation, I suggest you to first try reboot your phone, then click "Reset All Network"
If it still does not work, try your sim card in another phone if you have a one around
If that does not work or you have no spare phone to try, time to open ticket with PM support, they can reprovison the sim and should be able to get it working again

@Icey7860 do you not able to receive 2FA text (system text), like those security code from signing into bank sites? Can you receive text from friends?

@Icey7860 did you just join PM and did you request porting in your phone number?
can you confirm if you can recieve incoming calls? I suspect you might not be receiving incoming calls as well
if you ported in your number, the porting request could be "stuck". There is a number you can call to confirm the status. Will message you the phone number. Please check Community inbox
