    If you contract is with bell, you need to replace the SIM with Bell or contact them to see if they have an other way to confirm the transfer

    I assume your Bell Account is still active? I suggest you reach out to them directly, confirm your identity and ask for some other ways to transfer.
    Another option would be to go to Bell directly and get a new SIM.Usually they can cancel the old one and you can receive texts to the new SIM card. They simply link your number to the new SIM.
    I personally never had to answer a text when I transferred numbers.
