All, I am having issues getting my Apple Watch and watchOS 8 to recognize my cellular plan (Verizon). I am assuming this is an upgrade issue from watchOS 7, and I have reset, erased all content and settings, and unpaired the watch several times, but it will not recognize service. Verizon website says its active, but on the phone and watch won‘t complete the process. Any help please… (phone is iPhone 12, iOS 15.0.1)
 
I would call Verizon tech to try to help it getting it connected, if the Verizon tech cannot get it done they will place you on a three way call with an Apple tech as well to get it worked out. I had two issues with my new 13PM and Verizon could not figure it out so they contacted Apple who also could not at first get the issue resolved but Apple contacted me back 48 hours later with the fix.
