Not receiving all calls/texts

I transferred my number over from Virgin to Voxi but I’m not receiving all calls / texts. When my parents try to call they get an automated msg saying number not available. They also can’t txt me. They are on Plusnet/EE network. I also can’t receive verification codes via text from Visa or online banking for example. I have no idea if anyone else is trying to reach me and can’t which is annoying. 

I’ve spent many hours on chat with Voxi and Virgin trying to resolve it. Tried a new replacement sim, reset all settings, voxi disconnected me from the network altogether and added me again and many more workarounds.  But nothing is working. 

Desperate to get it sorted now. It’s so frustrating. Any help appreciated. I’ve searched the internet and forums for solutions but nothing is working.

This sounds like a Split Port to me @hlaws which is where not all the porting in files have settled properly.

I would suggest to speak with Voxi Customer Support and tell them you think this maybe a Split Port due to changing networks and ask them to involve their porting in teams.

Their Social Media Team's may also be able to help. Voxi Twitter  / Voxi Facebook.  

This appears to be more likely as from your templated answers this is happening everywhere and you've swapped out sims so I can't see it being a faulty sim card.

However trying a different phone would be beneficial as a process of elimination to rule out your phone as a possible problem.

I wish you all the best with this.

Hey @hlaws 👋 This does sound like a Split Port as @BandOfBrothers suggested. We'd love to look into this for you. Drop us a message here and we'll get the ball rolling. 

Thanks for your reply, that link doesn’t work. But I eventually got the number for the porting team in Eqypt, and after a whole day of calls with them, they have said it will be fixed by the middle of next week. So hopefully it will. Thanks.
