Hello, I have transferred from Fido to Public mob yesterday. Now I can only call others, but cannot get any call. How can I fix it. Thank you
Solved! Go to Solution.

Call the porting line which deals with failed ports.
The porting helpline is 1-x. (NOTE -- It's not available for any other account related inquiries.)

@Nazmul : user computergeek541 has supplied that earlier. Put your Fido SIM back in. Incoming will work fine. Then eventually you'll get the confirmation. Confirm. When the Fido SIM stops working then put in the new SIM and you should be good to go.

Moderater_Team can help you with submitting another porting request:

You can try to see if the people who you are calling/texting can note what number they're seeing from you, or if their calls to you are still going to your old provider voicemail.
Whenever possible, customers should be using SIMon to submit tickets. Using the method that you have provided will result in the customer receiving slower service.
When it comes to the number that shows on the call display when a call is made, this would be the ported number. Public Mobile assigns the requested phone number to the Public Mobile account before porting has even completed.

EDIT: As computergeek541 has noted, try the SIMon chat bot before resorting to Moderator_Team.

@Nazmul you need the old Fido SIM card in your phone to confirm the porting of your number from Fido.
Once you confirmed then install the PM SIM and reboot the phone.
Maybe contact the PM mediator to help with the porting.

Carriers are supposed to send you a confirmation text when you request a transfer at a new carrier.

Number porting has failed. You'll need to ask moderators to fix this. Open a ticket by going to: https://widget.telus.tiia.ai/publicmobile/publicmobile.html
Keep using your Fido SIM card as your phone calls are likely still going there.

@Nazmul : Did you leave your Fido SIM in to wait for the transfer confirmation? Have you restarted the phone after that with the new SIM in?
