faulty number

My PAC transfer shows as complete, but my SIM/eSIM is still using the temporary number. My old number isn’t registering with Apple for iMessage or FaceTime, and ‘Send & Receive’ only shows the temporary number. Could you check the port and retrovision my SIM/eSIM?”
 

I have tried all of your suggestions and they do not work.
