Went through the steps of setting up my new account to use my old phone number, opted for eSIM but when I went to load it I was unsuccessful, attempted it many times over 5-6 hours. Currently I am able to login and send a code to my email but it wants me to send a code to my phone number which I don’t yet have access to

If you cannot make the esim works, PM might need you to change back to physical sim first, get the account working before you can get another esim via the app
Please check with PM first
Since you cannot properly login, you won't be able to open the preferred Chatbot ticket. So, you will need to message them here:

there is a chance that Public Mobile esim is already installed and just not properly enabled
On Android: Check your Sim Card Manager and see if a Public Mobile eSim is there. If so, make sure it is enabled.
On iPhone: check Settings > Celluar and see if the eSIM is there. If it is, make sure the PM eSIM is set as Primary on "Cellular Plan Label" and "Turn on This Line" is toggled on
if you don't see the Public Mobile esim there, check the Welcome email, there should be a QR code for the esim for you to scan and install manually)
If the Public Mobile eSIM is there, disable or delete those non PM sim (eSIM/Physical sim).
If the non-PM sim is physical, remove it. If the non-PM sim is an esim, disable using the SIM Manager on the phone (or set as Secondary and turn off "Turn on this line" for this non-PM esim)
Then reboot the phone and click Reset All Networks on your phone and it will work. (Please note that Reset all Networks will also erase your saved Wifi and Bluetooth connections, but you just need to add them back after). Also, it is possible you have to reset it multiple times for it to work.
if it still does not work, open ticket with PM by private message CS Agent using this link:
