If you tried all the recommendations by others. It might be a backend issue so you need to contact a PM CS Agent.

If you've asked for a number porting, then open a ticket with PM  via:

https://widget.telus.tiia.ai/chatbot.html?botId=ZJkWuVb7Hp6EEcTIZKMZbvLwuDV&duid=1ml7MK2dvkmM37lFcEM...

If Not, try these suggestions one at a time:

- Reboot phone.

- Reseat your SIM card or better yet, try it in another phone and see how it goes.

- Check your APN settings.

- Reset network settings.

- Check for updates of phone system/carrier settings...

If you've created your self-serve account, log in and check if data shows up under My Data & Add-Ons of the first page.

If nothing works, there might be a SIM issue and you'll need to contact CS for help:

As you are able to make calls then Re-seating of the SIM and resetting of network settings might fix it. Based on your phone model.. follow steps for setting up 3G and APN settings.

@pthorne Incoming calls have issue likely because the porting has not been completed yet, either because of the PAT (Porting Authentication Text) not completed or PM needs as many as 2 hours after the PAT received.

for Data issue.  If you are using an LG, you will likely have to do a Network Reset 

If you are on iPhone, download the latest Carrier profile either via Wifi or use a Computer with iTune.

 @pthorne : The data part should work. You might need to manually adjust APN settings if it's an Android phone.

I also want to confirm that you can make calls ?

but no data?

No data would be a APN issue.  You might need to reboot your phone again to have them APN settings come down or manually reset it.  May I know what brand and model is your phone?

Did you just port your phone over to PM ?  Try rebooting your phone.

@pthorne  you just activated and requested porting your old number to PM?  If so, did you reply a text from your old provider approving the porting of the number?  You need to reply that text within 90 minutes.  After you done that, it will work within 2 hours, you just need to keep reboot your phone every 30 mins for update

if you missed the text, there is a number you can call to have them re-trigger the process, I will message you the number.  Please check your Community inbox , envelope icon on top right
