public mobile blacklisted my phone in error

I have owned my Pixelfor years (bought directly from Google) - on PM network for years.  I was transferring from an e-sim to a physical sim and somewhere in the process PM put my phone on the national BlackList.  How do I have this fixed as there is no customer service number to call .

keep checking inbox, PM usually reply within 1 to 4 hours.  If waited more than 4 hours and still no reply, message them again

And if you suspect the physical sim slow was blacklisted, try another active physical sim from another carrier to see if it works.  Also, you have an active PM physical sim? test it on another phone as well

I searched the the blacklist website with my eimi .... The phone is definitely blacklisted.

I used the suspend service/re-activate service on my public mobile profile after porting the esim to physical sim.   In the process the IMEI was blacklisted and then not removed from the blacklist.   I also put the physical sim in a different phone which worked. I also bought several esims which also didn't work on said blacklisted phone.

I do have an open ticket at the moment.   Just waiting on a response.   Wondering what the turn around times are like.

you sure your phone on the blacklist? check again

If your physical sim slot was never used, it could be that it was blacklisted earlier for whatever reason.  PM does not put phones on blacklisted unless advised by the PM account owner for Lost/Stolen.

(And since a phone now has esim and physical sim and hence the phone has 2 IMEIs, make sure you aware that one of them could be blacklisted but the other one could still work)

you can check with PM support again, but if you didn't ask them to blacklist it, I really doubt they did
