I have problems sharing the internet from my new iPhone, I just moved from the 6 to X, same SIM, same contract but it does not let me share internet. I have a spare SIM from THREE and as soon as I place it, it show personal hot spot. Before any one ask, iPhone is not blocked

Is it a monthly contract sim?

Hiya,

 

I'm also having a similar problem to the one described. I had an iphone 6 and was able to use the phone as a personal hotspot no problem.  I bought an iphone X and whenever I try (by going into the phone's settings) I get sent to a generic help page.

 

My phone is on a contract, and was bought directly from the apple store, so is not locked.

 

Thanks

You may have the wrong data tariff on your account.
Call customer service on 202 to check it’s data for iPhone.
