Hi. Since porting to O2 I am unable to activate iMessage and FaceTime for my phone number. It worked up until the port was completed. 

I have switched both off and restarted the device then switched back on but I get activation failure messages when I select my phone number.  The number is registered on my Apple ID and phone. I have taken the sim out, signed out of my Apple ID, reset my network settings etc but to no avail. I have another O2 number and I can use that one ok, just not the one I ported.  

anyone got any advice? I have just asked for a replacement SIM card to try that. 

 

thanks

Hi there. I am currently experiencing the same issue after moving over from Three. Called O2 support who confirmed everything was ported correctly and Apple Support have confirmed there's nothing wrong with the iPhone settings. I have tried all available troubleshooting options; Resetting Network Settings, SIM card out and back in; Time Zone check; Logging in and Out of Apple ID etc etc). If anyone can help I would be very grateful.

 

Thanks. 

James

Looks like we missed O2Sarah- earlier, but @O2Emma should be on shortly and may be able to get you sorted, @JAJW  - watch out for a Private Message from her. Good luck!

Can someone please try and help. @O2Ryan  has helped but we’ve gone through all the steps I had already tried before posting. I have even tried a blank sim today and that hasn’t worked. I am stuck and so frustrated and really want this sorted. 
Have already spoken to apple who reccomended everything I’ve tried and even factory reset with no success. 
have also put the sim in a different phone that was factory reset and not signed into iCloud anywhere on the device. 
@O2Emma @O2Sarah- @Breanna @O2Georgina @O2Ryan 

please someone help me with something, I am out of my wits!
