Cellular setup for family setup

I bought 3 Apple SE watches for Christmas for my young kids to be used with Family Setup. We got all of the numbers assigned to their watches. I called to get cellular activated. One is working. The other two will NOT connect. I’ve spent over 10 hours in 3 days getting nowhere with AT&T. I’ve tried everything they can come up with, and it’s even worse than where I started. Help.

Apple Watch Series 8, watchOS 10

Problem connecting child's se 23 apple watch to truphone data plan I purchased a new apple watch se 2023 cellular for my son. We have set up the family sharing feature on my iphone 11 ( a work phone), purchased the truphone plan and then tried to go through the set up process which the phone prompted us to do, the phone displayed: The telstra account on this iphone cannot be used to add a mobile data plan to Tasman's apple watch The truphone website says: If your iphone is locked or have an existing plan from a different mobile provider, you can still use truphone on your apple watch. The Truphone service is not dependent on the mobile provider used in your phone. I have seen this massage has appeared for other people, Optus customer's too, anybody got a fix?

I paired the watch for family member, but when im trying to connect cellular it keeps on connecting to my carrier (not successfully, my plan does not support watch line). What can I do? I have a line for this watch from another carrier, but it’s not working, how to fix?

Unable to Activate Cellular Service on Apple Watch SE (1st Gen) I am unable to add my daughter’s new Apple Watch SE (1st Gen) to my US Cellular plan via Family Share. The watch pairs easily to my iPhone 12, but I repeatedly receive a connection error notice upon accepting the terms/conditions of the cellular setup prompt. The watch works flawlessly on WiFi, but it was purchased solely for the fact that she would have her own cellular connection. Frustration level is high, as I’ve been dealing with this issue for nearly a week. Thanks!
