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

Thank you. Spoke to someone the other day via chat who said no international bar was on my account however someone on phone said they have just removed it. I also requested £0 spend cap be changed to £5 to see if it will make a difference but no luck so far
