Just activated my public mobile account successfully, but I want to transfer my number from Koodo Prepaid. I went to the change phone number section in self serve and attempted to do the port. System said "We were unable to transfer the phone number you entered." I have not deactivated my Koodo Account. What do I do?

My understanding is that Koodo Prepaid and Public Mobile share some back end features that can get the system to act up if you are using the same e-mail address for the two accounts.
If that's the case I would go into the Koodo account and change the e-mail address there and try to submit the request again. Don't forget to clear the browser cache / use incognito mode. Also, check the "I'm authorized" box before entering your account number (no special characters or spaces) and account holder name exactly as in your Koodo account

Hi @newcomer; Are you sure that you entered your Koodo account information correctly. The smallest discrepancy could cause the automatic transfer to fail.
If your are confident that the info you entered was accurate, you will need to send a private message to the moderators team. They are gone for the day, but will be back on-line at 9:00 AM (Eastern). Provide the details of your PM account (phone number, PIN, email), as well as the info regarding the Koodo number you wish to port over. They'll get your number ported...
