Number still not transferred, please help


I haven’t received an answer to my last question, please could an iD representative please get back to me?

My previous number was supposed to transfer 1 week ago to my new iPhone 13 but I still cannot make calls or receive any texts. I’ve tried restarting my phone but no luck.

I really need to get this fixed asap. Not being able to receive OTPs is making it impossible to use various important features.

Please could a member of the iD staff look into this? Many thanks

Hi @tamaramacarthur 

 

I’d recommend the following;

 

1) Turn off iMessage (Settings > Messages)
2) Restart your phone (by pressing and holding the on/off button)
3) Tap Settings > Phone > My Number and confirm that it is correct. 
4) If it is not correct, please enter the correct number
5) Turn iMessage back to On (Settings > Messages)
6) Finally, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and see if the correct number is displayed under "Start new conversations from:"

 

If you are having issues with step 4 please reset network settings and try again.

 

Settings > General > Transfer or Reset [Device] > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
