Balance Wrong After Number Port-In

[Madness]

OK, I'm an existing Tracfone customer who had just ported-in a number from a VOIP (consider it a landline) provider. This changed my TF number. However, my service end date was set to today (12/2), which I had corrected by calling customer service.

But my airtime balance is still incorrect. It currently shows 0.15 MB of data & just under 500, each, of texts & minutes. Yet, before the number change, I had around 2.2 GB of data, around 2,200 texts & 1,500 minutes (a yearly card had been added to the account).

Now, I was having a hard time communicating w/ the service rep. She kept on stating that she couldn't understand, "some of the words I said/sent." So, I had to keep repeating myself. But, finally, she changed the service-end date to 5/8/2021 (which is correct) & said something about having to wait for the, "system to update." I had asked her to checked under my old number, but I think she said that she was unable to. So, just wondering if I can get my missing balance back.

OK, well I had an online chat w/ a rep (not sure if I can give name). She shows my balance as what the My Account app shows: 0MB data, 469 minutes & 487 texts (current). She stated that she was unable to look up previous balance, under my old number, & that she really couldn't do anything further on her end.

Just seems wrong to me that porting/changing a number should wipe out ones balance. And even more that they won't make this right.

So, do you not follow-up to posts? I did as instructed & spoke to a rep via chat. She stated that she was unable to do anything about my lost balances nor could she find anything under my old number (I still find that hard to believe). What if I can locate the receipt for the yearly card that had been added in May of this year? That added quite a few texts & minutes, but I only use the phone sparingly.

I've already been through an online chat. And I was basically told, flat-out, that there was nothing the person could do. That was after I asked her to check under my old number (still find it hard to believe that you have NO history or records of usage under the latter). Going through another chat would feel like beating a dead horse.
