@mazyarabdar number changes are only allowed once every 30 days. thats probably the reason your service is deactivated.

@mazyarabdar then contact the moderators to fix it for you... as already suggested above.

Two ways to contact the moderators:

• Faster way – Click the chat bubble at the bottom right of the page, type “talk to human" >> "account-specific question" >> "no, I need a human now" >> Click here to submit a ticket!
• Slower way – Send a private message to the Moderators_Team here.  You have to be logged in to your Community account for the link to work. 

It may take up to 48 hrs (hopefully less) to receive a reply from the moderators.  Keep checking the envelope icon on top right for a number to pop up. That would be the moderator’s reply.

Hi @mazyarabdar why didn't you like the first number you chose?  so sad for the number 😭 lol jk.  Your sim card is just probably confused.  But you could try one or more of the below, maybe just need to kick start your Public Mobile network:

• rebooting your phone
• removing your SIM for a few minutes, then reinserting it
• go into airplane mode for a few minutes, then going back to regular mode
• reboot your phone again

Also, after any change on your self-serve account, always clear your browsing data, cache and cookies, before logging back in. 

Still not working?  then contact the moderators using the link provided above.

This is an account problem and sounds like the system never updated the phone number on Public Mobile's end. Try rebooting your device. If that doesn't work, proceed to https://publicmobile.ca/chatbot to open a ticket.
