Can’t port number

I have had no success in transferring my phone number to Xfinity. Originally when I applied for line in app, it asked for IMEI2 but I was told my phone wouldn’t work with esim. So I was sent a nano sim that took six days to arrive. My service had lapsed for other carrier had lapsed by then so I was without service for four days

Well after over seven hours with various agents, I cancelled the order. I must have spoken to 6 or more agents assuring me they could resolve the issue before eventually suggesting I get a new number. Not a chance with a number that I’ve had for over 10 years. But I realized if xfinity mobile couldn’t port my number, how could I trust the service. Especially since I had used the number before with Xfinity.

I’m not sure about this format. Anyway, got sim today and 5 hours later no service. Fortunately I have extension from previous provider and will be going back if not resolved in two days.

I have already spent many hours on the phone to no avail and noted as a solution that I am simply keeping my current carrier.

I am going through the same thing right now only because it took so long to get me a sim card in the mail, my 20 year old phone number was discarded and they are wanting me to get a new number.  I wasnt happy with xfinity tv and internet and I am really upset with their lack of mobile service.  And don't get me started on their Philipino employees!!!!!!!
