I ported my number from Public to Koodo. The port was successful.
However,
1-when I text pictures to someone, they receive it as a group text (a new one, not just the normal texting) with both my ported number and the original number Koodo gave me. So it looks to them like a 3 person chat.
2-when I receive pictures from someone, I receive it as a chat with the two of us. Again, not like the normal messaging back and forth, but a separate multi person chat.
I hope this makes sense.
