Xfinity Voice no longer works after porting my landline phone number to Xfinity

Upgraded to a new Xfinity Gateway and turned in the old gateway. We requested that our old land line phone number to become our new Xfinity Voice phone number. App showed both the old and new phone numbers in our account for two days, then the app says that something went wrong and to contact Xfinity. Used the app service to restart the gateway. Internet and other cable services works as expected, but there is absolutely no phone service. I am connecting the phone directly into the gateway phone port (I only have one available port for that) and I get no dial tone. I also get a fast busy signal when attempting to call. X A support is circular and keeps suggesting the same information without providing any useful assistance to resolve the issue.

Thank you for reaching out here @user_ebze0m. I would be happy to troubleshoot any issue with that service from here for you. Could you send me a direct message with the full name and complete address for your service? 

To send a direct message [private message]:

   Click the "Direct Message" icon or  https://forums.xfinity.com/direct-messaging

   Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

   The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there.

   - As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list.

   - An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line.

   Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

   Press Enter to send it

@XfinityJohnG​ I have been working with representatives regarding this matter. My last updated this afternoon was that the phone line was in the process of being ported from one company's service to Xfinity and the new expected date for that to complete will be August 27, 2025. No further action will be needed unless there is still a problem with that transfer.  Thank you for the response.
