Still waiting on my old number to port onto my iPhone 12 o2 esim. Been 36 hrs now, followed all instructions regards phone off etc.. I still haven’t received the 2 nd text but the o2 ansaphone answers the number to be ported now, so something is happening.

Have I missed anything?

Worst port in 20 odd years ! 

Any suggestions?

No suggestions except "Hang in there", @Portless - or if you feel like chasing it up, the links to o2's Social Media Team are shared below. I think the O2 and VM merger has really impacted a number of areas, porting being the most impactful one. Fingers crossed your port completes today - keep rebooting every so often!

@Portless 

There have been quite a few eSim failures during porting so if nothing happens this morning you may need to contact O2 for a new eSim.

You can have a pack sent to you or go in store to pick one up.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
