Apple Watch, No Caller ID intermittent 4G

Hello All,

 

I upgraded my Apple Watch last week and moved my cellular network plan over from one watch to the other, No issues.

 

However since being on the new watch and it’s connected to cellular and I receive a call it comes through as ‘No Caller ID’. I’ve tried from landlines, Mobiles all come through like this. Also whilst connected I only have the Mobile Antenna symbol and not 4G when I look at the connectivity; Could these 2 be related?

I’ve spoken to CS and they’ve done an E-sim reset on the watch and re-setup and I’ve still got the same issue, Anyone got any ideas?

 

Thanks

James

Check you're properly connected to the watch.

Set up the data plan from the watch setup routine and it will walk you through buying an airtime plan.
https://www.o2.co.uk/help/phones-sims-and-devices/apple-watch
Open the Watch app on your iPhone and tap on ‘Mobile Data’.
Then tap ‘Set up mobile data’. You’ll be prompted to sign in with your My O2 username and password.
Once you’ve signed in, select your Apple Watch plan. Follow the steps on the screen to set up your Apple Watch Airtime Plan.
It can take up to 24 hours to activate, but sometimes it might take a little longer.
To check if your new Airtime Plan is active, open the Watch app on your iPhone and tap on ‘Mobile Data’. In the ‘Data Plan’ section, if you see O2 with the word ‘activating’ then you’ll have to wait a little longer for set up to complete. If you see O2 with an orange ‘i’ next to it, then you’re all set up.
If you get an error message at any point, on the iPhone, go to Settings and select Privacy > Motion & Fitness and switch it on.
Then go back to the watch app/Mobile Data/set up mobile data plan and be ready to put your o2 username and password in to the resulting o2 screen. Also, it costs £5 monthly to add the airtime for the Apple Watch, so you'll need to authorise this after entering the o2 user name and password. The phone app will then say 'activating' which can take a day or so, but at that point, you can try doing a phone call direct from the watch to test it.
You also need to have 4g and wifi calling and iData enabled on your account and pay bills by direct debit.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
