iMessage activation

[noushad2005]

After porting my number from o2, i’ve been notified that the porting was successful and have checked the number is linked to my phone. However i cannot send iMessage texts from my number as it is “waiting for activation”. I’ve tried every method i’ve seen online, i’m wondering if it’s a vodafone problem or an apple problem and who i should contact.

Don't know if you have tried the suggestions on this previous thread @noushad2005 https://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/iOS/iMessage-won-t-activate/m-p/2718574

The problem may also be the weekend and the feature will activate on Monday.
