Credit and Debit cards not added to Apple Wallet on a single device - iPhone 15 Pro

By the way, this started failing only a few weeks ago, before that there were no issues and all my cards were on my phone. Apple Support suggested I remove all my cards and add them again but now I can't add them back.

They did have a reader that they tested out the NFC Tap to pay and it seemed to be fine. They said all diagnostics came back fine but are totally perplexed as to what the issue is. I was told support would contact me in 24 hours but haven't heard back yet.

Both. We’ve done network resets, full phone resets, restore without backups, reinstall through a Mac, creating an alternate Apple ID, I can’t think of anything that the Apple Genius and myself haven’t tried.

Same error every time.

Happens after the "successful" validation with the bank on every card.

The banks see success on their end but I do not. Any other troubleshooting lists I've seen doesn't seem to identify this error.

Incorrect/Unknown. I only see that verification number when adding the card to other devices, I can't get to that step on my iPhone 15 Pro. Mentioned to the bank and they verified it wasn't on my account and to ignore it... 😓

I agree, someone is blocking this one phone and no one will own up to it. Like I said all my other devices are fine.

Since this is some third party blocking my device then the phone isn't viable to be replaced by Apple and I'll probably never find out why it's being blocked. The phone is basically a useless piece of tech right now.

My only option is to use my backup device for now until it's time to replace that with another device. This whole troubleshooting process has been a nightmare and I'm really annoyed that the iPhone 15 Pro I have is basically useless. To be honest I could probably trade in the 15 Pro come September for a 16 Pro and hope this isn't and issue with the next version.

So I think this is a bigger problem, not only can I not add Credit Cards to my iPhone 15 Pro but my Apple Watch Ultra (Gen 1) can't get the cellular plan restored.

I tried restoring my iPhone 15 Pro to just move on without Apple Pay and now my Apple Watch Ultra has lost its cellular plan and cannot restore the eSIM.

The Verizon support agent said the eSIM activation flow I'm seeing should not be happening.

None of this makes sense to me whatsoever. I tried setting up my iPhone 15 Pro again and facing further problems:

* cards can’t be added to wallet

* Apple Watch Ultra eSIM can’t be installed.

I’ve given up using Apple wallet and just wanted to get this $1200 device working but facing more and more problems. There also seems to be a time difference you can switch esims because can’t put the eSIM back on my iPhone 14 Pro.

ugh all I want is this **** phone to work!!!!! 😡😡😡

All I know right now is this iPhone IS NOT WORKING!

2 basic features it is supposed to support and ITS FAILING!

No one has a solution.

There is no way to diagnose the problem.

All there are, are repetitive lists of things to do that just seem to make it worse.

Whether the two are connected or not has reached a point where it doesn't matter. This iPhone 15 Pro is not working and no one seems to actually know what the issue is because there is no information to actually use to fix it. Not at the banks, not at the phone providers, not at Apple.

Seems like a very broken system if you ask me.

Yeah I've not been able to fix it yet. I even tried going through my phone logs through my Mac but getting very vague messages.

I'm going to try and head to a verizon store next week to fix my Apple Watch eSIM issue since working over the phone did not resolve anything.
