My port-in failed — what do I do?

Last updated on 04 Sept, 2026

A failed port-in means your previous carrier rejected the request.

In the US: your new plan will activate once the port completes — you have not lost service.

Common rejection reasons

  • Incorrect account number: Find the correct number on a recent bill or in your previous carrier's MyBundle account — do not rely on memory Invalid or expired authorization code

  • Invalid or expired authorization code: Request a fresh code from your previous carrier. Most codes are valid for 30 days.

  • Number no longer active: Contact your previous carrier immediately to check if the number can be reinstated

  • Outstanding balance: Settle balance with old carrier, then resubmit

  • Number not eligible for porting: Some numbers cannot be transferred, if confirmed, a new number will be assigned

What to do

• Check the Mobile Dashboard in your MyBundle account for the reason the port was rejected

• Fix the issue (correct account number, get new authorization code, clear balance)

• Resubmit the port request from your account in your MyBundle account
