Issue porting from VOXI to EE

[j1yan]

Hi, 

I've recently decided to make the switch from VOXI to EE. I received my sim in the mail yesterday and set up the porting; "Thanks, the port in is all set up and will take place by 6pm on 24-04-2026". I checked this morning and my number has been successfully ported on the app and when I text "NUMBER" to 150. 

However, I can only make calls and texts, not receive them. I have tested calling myself from another number and it does not work. I am also not receiving any verification codes via text. Is this a split port issue or does porting take time to fully process? Surely if my number has been updated and I can make calls, I should also be able to receive them?

Wondering if I wait it out until 6pm to see if it fixes itself (before calling customer service) and risk not being able to resolve this situation before the weekend or not.

You may even find a difference in behaviour between incoming calls from "on-net" (i.e. another EE user) cf "off-net" (from other networks", due to the nature of how calls are routed.

What you're describing is classic split-porting, which is perfectly normal on the day of port-in. EE do have internal porting support on Saturday, should it be necessary.

Hi @j1yan 

Daft question but have you tried restarting your device.

Thanks
