Hello Mobile Tech support,

I am porting "in my existing number to my new xfinity mobile".

After I completed the activation form, I swtiched ON my phone. 

It still says "Connecting your service, with a moving bar". I wonder how long will it take to complete porting so that I can use my new number.

Hello, @user_e35f5c. Thanks for signing up for Xfinity Mobile! I had the same thing happen to me on Wednesday when I activated a new line in my home. I got stuck on step 3 and waited over 24 hours trying different things. I ended up having to speak with the Xfinity Mobile team and found the porting number that I entered had expired. They got things up and running a few minutes later for me. I want to ensure you’re able to get in touch with an awesome Xfinity Mobile expert to help get this resolved.

Hi @XfinityRay thank you for detailed reply. I will call or text xfinity. However,  When In the apartment where I live, I guess Cellular tower seems not close to me, hence the cellular bar(in the top right corner of phone) is empty, only I see blank Wifi bar

Hello Mobile Support, 

I have a galaxy fold. Had to get a replacement through Assurant. Long story short, I need help with help with replacing my old device on my existing line and activating the replacement. I got the phone in the mail yesterday, tried activating it on my own to no avail. I went to the store located in Greenacres, FL today and was told to come back tomorrow because he couldn't do it. I earlier tonight, chatted with representative Rohit, who told me that I had to contact Assurant in order to activate my phone. He lied. Assurant has it on their home page to contact Xfinity with activation. I really don't appreciate them having me going back and forth. Can someone please assist me with activating my phone? Thank you.
