It’s a new number that I picked from PM when I activated the SIM card with the 204 Manitoba area code with a number starting 595 that I picked from the portage la prairie area

Is PM gave you your current phone number?

Do you have a phone number with a very very new area code?

 

My family members are using WhatsApp on iPhone and Android phones on PM network without any issue.

@Randy83 Does it let you verify your number? Ask support WHY your number is unsupported. Is it a new area code where you are maybe?

If you received an in-app message stating your account is 'Temporarily banned' this means that you're likely using an unsupported version of WhatsApp instead of the official app"

 

Users have also received "Your phone number is banned from using WhatsApp. Contact support for help" as a message to inform them that their accounts have been banned by WhatsApp.

@Randy83 Ask whatsapp why your number is unsupported. If it isn't important to you, you can change your number for free once every 30 days. Make sure you find out what is a supported number.
