[captainprice]

my brother ported his number from asda mobile payg to o2 classic payg as far as i know the port went through ok he can make and receive calls and can send texts but cannot receive them, the my o2 app does not recognise the number he has ported over plus when he logs into his o2 account it says he has no products which means he cannot top up he has reset his phone a sony xperia xa2 forced into a diff network then back to o2 buy he still cannot recieve text messages i tried the sim in my phone and no text messages have come through is this to do with the port or do i hace to get a new sim and do a sim swap

Sounds like a faulty sim. 

Pop into your local o2 store for a free swap.
