I can't connect to my surface 3 tablet running windows 10, with my I phone 5 personal hot spot.
iPhone 5, iOS 9.3.1
Can you check with other devices if the hotspot is otherwise working OK?
Don't mean to be "passing the buck" but it might be worth your effort to try and get support on this issue on MS Surface support forums...
Hi
If you want to use a tablet pc away from your home wifi
The thing to buy is a mifi dongle run up to 10 devices
On pay & go or contact works anywere you have a mobile phone signal .

Would you care to share exactly "how" it was fixed in 3 minutes? 😉
Magic wand? Whacked with a hammer? Microwave oven? 👿

So... the only oddball part I see is the combination #2 & 3 that would be unusual in normal wifi troubleshooting. Did the Geek do anything in #2 iTunes hookup step at all?
Sounds like a nifty-unknown trick if merely the steps 1-3 😉
