Try the following to get plan re-activated again. (Just keep going down the list)

1. Restart your phone
2. Lost/Stolen trick 
   

    wait a couple of minutes and then declare your phone found by using the same steps from above and restart your phone.

3. Add $1 to your account funds

If none of the above methods work submit a ticket to the Moderator Team for help. 

To submit a ticket to the Moderator Team, please start a conversation with the Public's virtual assistant, SIMon by clicking the icon below:

Restart your phone.

What does it say on top left of your screen OR on your lock screen?
Does it say "Public Mobile", "No SIM" or emergency calls only?

When you activated, did you port your old number or did you get a new phone number?

As @popping wrote, what is working or not working on your phone?
1. Incoming calls
2. Outgoing calls
3. Incoming texts
4. Ougoing texts
5. Mobile data (to test this, make sure wifi on your phone is turned off)

If restart doesn't work, please contact moderatorshttps://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437

1.  Turn off your phone.

2.  wait a minute

3. Start your phone again with PM SIM card inserted to let the PMS SIM card configure your phone.

Report call in/out, text in/out and data result.  What is working? What is not working?

[darlicious]

@vissiawoodcraft  Make sure you are not on WiFi. Are you sure your phone is unlocked? Are you getting any messages on your phone?

@vissiawoodcraft  what's the make and model of your phone?  Thanks

@vissiawoodcraft  Does your data and texting work? If you chose a new (temporary?) number and rebooting your phone does not allow you to call out or receive calls your SIM may not have provisioned properly. Contacting the moderators would be the next step.

Can you receive calls or text? 

Is your phone unlocked?

[vissiawoodcraft]

I purchased the 25 dollar plan with unlimited phone and text and gets a bit of data. I get data but no phone.

@vissiawoodcraft 

Did you pick a new phone number or did you port a phone number?

If you ported a number, sometimes it just takes for that to start working, Give your phone a restart.

[gblackma]

@vissiawoodcraft  is this a new number or did you port your number? If it's a new number, Try restarting your phone, turn it off, wait 30 seconds and restart it. Thanks. If you ported from a cell provider, it may take up to 3 hours to transfer successfully and up to 2.5 days if from a voip provider or landline.

[kselmak]

Which phone do you have?

You will need 850 and 1900 MHz 3g frequency to make calls

Data and texts can be done on 4g

Do texts and data work?

Hi

Did your sim register with the network?
