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.

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
