"No Service" after transfer of number

I transferred my number from Koodo Mobile to Public Mobile and when I put my PUBLIC MOBILE  SIM card in it still says NO Service.  I called the Porting Centre, they say the number transfer was successful and it looks like the issue is account related.  Any ideas what is wrong and how to fix?

*reset network settings on your device

*Is your phone locked? Contact your previous provider to unlock it for you. You will need your imei number, dial *#06# to get it.

@yilinglin   Even porting not completed yet, you should still be able to connect to PM network.

 

did you try to reseat your SIM (power off, take sim out for a minute before putting it back and power up)

 

also, try your PM SIM on another phone and see if it works
