+26Unfortunately a PAC can only be used to move your mobile number from one service provider to another service provider, not for an internal transfer.
Are you sure you changed/upgraded your handset contract, and didn’t purchase a new iD contract by mistake
If your ‘old’ SIM is still around, does it work in your iPhone 12?
yes i’ve put my old sim back in , but now my messages & facetime arent’t working like they should
+26Sounds like you’ve got two separate iD contracts now
Perhaps the following steps will get the Apple iMessage & FaceTime services working with your ‘old’ iD SIM again:
- Turn OFF iMessage
- Turn OFF FaceTime
- Turn OFF your iPhone
- Remove your ‘old’ SIM card and check it’s clean from smudges and not damaged
- Insert your ‘old’ SIM card and turn ON your iPhone
- Turn ON iMessage
- Turn ON FaceTime
Hopefully Apple will recognise the mobile number linked with your iPhone is the number associated with the ‘old’ iD SIM card.
