IOS 9 Cellular Data Usage Restrictions not working

Hello, I just updated several devices to IOS 9 and I noticed the Cellular Data Usage Restrictions are turned on. However, when I check the Cellular settings I am able to make changes under User Cellular Data for section. This is the same behavior with all upgraded devices I have. Is this a known issue?

This issue is fixed in iOS 9.3 as far as I can tell. It works for me.

Very helpful and this resolved the issue on my IPHONE5 which was causing so much issues. This really helps to open up and then lock the settings.

Thanks a ton again.

I had this problem, too, but I seem to have found a way to get it to work again. I had to go into Settings>General>Restrictions and then disable restrictions. Restart the iPhone. Set all of the settings that you want to be "locked" after reapplying the restrictions. Then go back in and enable restrictions again. Now, when I go back to Cellular Data, the apps' toggle switches below are now grayed out.
