Sorry for the late update, I simply forgot my password, just did "forgot password" and I'm in.

 

Here is update of my SPEAKOUT --> PUBLIC Mobile, it's for someone who will port from Speakout in future.

 

In the porting form, please fill as I did:

1. Account number --> leave it blank

2. IMEI number ---> input your phone IMEI number

3. PIN ---> leave it blank

 

....

 

Other contact when there is porting problem:  613-xxx-yyyy ( my other Videotron phone number not with PM)

Your  name:   John Doe

 

Check "I'm authorized .." 

 

Submit and wait 6 hours .

 

In my case, I just leave my phone charging and the time from I submit to SMS "porting complete" is 6 hours .

 

Speakout users, patience is a virtue. That's it 🙂

I would not trust a third party to get involved when the carriers provide the feature.

A customer cannot use another company to process a number portability request to Public Mobile.  Only the carrier who is being ported to can process such a request.

 

Further, since the porting request failed for this customer, that person has no choice but to contact Public Mobile's moderators.

@tonyottawa  Ports can take up to 24 hours to complete. Typical time is 2 hours. Just continue to use your speakout sim until it stops working. Once it stops then the port is complete. Porting from Speakout my understanding is that a PIN works best but IMEI should work.


Great. Thanks. I should have asked before I do the porting, I do have the PIN too. Whatever, will find out tomorrow. No rush.

I just filled a form to port from Speakout Wireless (aka 711 wireless) ,  I only input  phone number, IMEI number of phone, my land line number (so they can contact me if needed), and my name.  1 hour passed and phone number is still  not ported.

 

Is it normal?
