There's alot to ask on this and not much info was provided. I'm assuming that you dont have a trusted IT person with the company to help with the process. Try this from your own machine. I looked up your scenario by copying the text from your posting and searching into perplexity.ai

Dont buy anything or give personal details. It can give a decent framework on steps to take. Consult with someone more tech savvy as deal with the transfer can be aggravating.

Do you have the phone, but they ported the number to a different phone? Did you port your number to their provider when you joined or how were they paying your bill? Did you get that agreement in writing? Have you talked to the provider who holds your number? Was the number listed with your name? Ie if someone looked up the number would it give you or if the search for you could they find you? Do you have documentation that it was your number prior to joining the company? What response are you getting when you say, I need to port my number over to a new carrier now that I am no longer at your company? And who is telling you no? HR? Your old boss? IT? What happens now if you call that number?

Do you know what is required ... ie what documentation do you need to port the number? If all else fails, get an attorney to write a demand letter. But

Moved to the city about 6 months ago and I’ve been disappointed in my experience. I know the pandemic is playing a factor but I didn’t expect the winter days as gloomy as they’ve been. For those who have lived here for a while, is this normally what the winters are like? What do you do to keep things interesting when you can’t go outside? Last two months have made me consider moving but part of me feels like I won’t have given the city a fair shot

I’m 23 and independent. Working full time and studying full time is taking a serious toll on my mental health. I’m always tired, unmotivated, depressed, sometimes angry at my life, and I don’t know what to do. I’m in my sophomore year. I also don’t work in the field that I’m studying (computer science) because I’m always rejected without an interview, which is another aggravating factor for me. It’s hard to have time to work on personal projects to make my portfolio more attractive.
