Can’t send iMessage on apple after porting
SharonW_2911073 Sign out of iMessage and FaceTime. Check Settings for My Number and you may be able to change it. Sign back into iMessage and FaceTime.
The phone has 'remembered' the number allocated to the sim when you activated it - happens all the time.

Hi thanks for your response. Your suggestion didn’t work but after 2 days of emailing (easier for me) one of the smarty tech experts sorted it. I had to reset network in phone and that worked 👍
thank you for your answer and time though

SharonW_2911073 Glad it worked eventually.
I was somewhat loathe to suggest a network reset as it does seem a bit drastic. I shall remember that the techies recommend it though!

It states that I need to have sim connected to the number that I wanted to keep. I can do it all except iMessage.
in phone details it still thinks that’s my number.- MSF03-09-2024SMARTY Guru
SharonW_2911073 Not really clear what you mean here.
The phone has correct number in My Number?
Under Settings>Sign-in & Security does it show correct number?
If it still won't work then try a web chat with Smarty Support to ensure that port went through properly.
