eSIM problem

I ported my phone number this morning to Public Mobile. I am able to receive calls and texts and use my data. I am not able to make calls or send text. When I go into settings, this is selected as my primary and says no sim. How can I fix this.

@BethD 

I have removed your screenshot as it shows your phone number.  You might want remove the picture from your image libary.  Use this link:  https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/media/gallerypage/user-id/443269/tab/all  , then click the X on the top right of the image

And with what you showed, it says No SIM there.  I have a feeling the eSIM was not installed.   But you said you received call?  was that just iMessage/Facetime calls?

Did you get to the eSIM installation step?   Either the app will ask for your permission to do it for you, or you can get the QR code to install yourself. 

If you missed the step to install by the app, there is a QR code in your Welcome email.  Open it from a computer, or another device, then use your phone to scan it to install the eSIM profile on your phone.

Once you installed the eSIM profile, (or If you got passed that step eSIM installation step), try to reboot your phone once.  

If it still does not connect and if you have another active sim on the phone, disable those non PM sim (eSIM/Physical sim) using the SIM Manager on the phone or simply remove the physical sim.  

And make sure the one associated with PM sim and your phone number is enabled.
(On iPhone: Settings->Cellular , make sure the PM eSIM is set as Primary on "Cellular Plan Label" and "Turn on This Line" is toggled on)

Then 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, Please private message CS Agent at:
