urgent help needed - number ported to public mobile, eSim deleted and can't reactivate - shows SOS

I recently ported my phone number to Public from telus and activated an eSim for the service. I received confirmation that the porting process was successful from telus end but there was a sync issue from public.

however, I accidentally deleted the eSim profile from my phone. Since then, my phone shows SOS only and I am unable to make or receive calls or texts. 

when I try to add the esim back using the original activation QR code I get a message saying my number cannot be transferred or activated again. I am concerned that deleting the eSim may have caused my number activation to be blocked or stuck. 

I want to clarify that:

the number porting process was fully completed and the number is now with Public Mobile 

I currently have no active eSim or Sim installed on my phone, which is why I have no service. 

I need help to reactivate my number on a new eSim profile so I can use my phone normally. 

Please assist with reissuing a new QR code or resetting my account activation if necessary. 

I NEED HELP

@Catarina_Spence 

you shouldn't have deleted your esim.  It was likely just an esim setup on the device or a sim provisioning issue and both could be resolved quickly

now that you have deleted your esim, you have no choice but to engage support to try to get a new esim or change to physical sim first.  Please private message CS Agent at:
