Q: Siri says I haven't enabled mobile data (but I am on 3G)?

Is Siri not available on 3G network anymore and just LTE now?

I tried this in my car earlier, and Siri told me I did not have wi-fi or mobile data enabled in my settings (when I obviously had 3G on) when I tried asking her to change the song currently playing. I tried it again at home with my wi-fi turned off, and she still said the same thing.

iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 9.2.1

Siri needs cellular data, either 3G or LTE or Wi-Fi.
Do you have cellular data plan?

If Siri isn't available, or doesn't understand or respond to questions
After each step, see if you still need help:
Make sure that your iOS device has an Internet connection through Wi-Fi or cellular data.
On your iOS device, make sure that Siri is turned on under Settings > General > Siri.
Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
On your iOS device, go to Settings > General > Siri and turn off Siri. Then turn it on again.
Make sure that the microphones on your device aren't blocked. For example, if your device has a protective case, remove it.
If you're using an iOS device, try to use Siri with a headset. If Siri works, get more help with the microphones on your device.
Contact Apple Support.
