Apple Watch 3 not showing names and numbers

Hello,


I recently got an Apple Watch 3 Cellular. I've discovered when the watch is on cellular and not connected to the iPhone and someone calls it just says "Unknown Caller" or "No Called ID". If i don't answer it then when it pops up saying i missed a call it knows who was calling. - I did notice on my iPhone on the Recents Log it shows the name/number of who was calling and at the same time it shows a second missed call from "Unknown Caller".


I tried going into the Watch App on the iPhone and "Reseting Sync Data". But that didn't help. It's almost like the call information wasn't sent to the Apple Watch.


I checked my Verizon Wireless account setting for the watch and everything looked from what i could tell ok.


Anyone else having or had this issue? Suggestions?


Thanks

It took me four days and exchanging my Apple Watch before I found the answer. I called Verizon again and spoke with a tech named Alex she discovered that the apple watches number didn’t have the caller Id turned on. Once she turned the feature on it worked perfect and now I know who’s calling. Thanks again Alex.
