Who I have the same questioned this topic

I got my Note 9 around a month ago. I have been using hotspot okay the past month or so. Only used 0.5 GB and 5.5 GB total in the verizon unlimited plan. Today I am getting constantly no matter where I am mobile hotspot stuck on "Checking subscription status" and after a bit it says "unable to connect: data connect not available" and fails to start. Now internet is working fine, no issues. I can actually turn on wifi, connect to wifi, and turn on hotspot fine. It seems just doing it over mobile data is an issue. I tried in around 3-4 different regions since I was travelling today with good signal and it doesn't want to work.

Has anyone else has this sort of issue?

Phone: Galaxy Note 9

Plan: Verizon Unlimited

Data used so far past 20 days: only 5.5 GB of normal and 0.5 GB of hotspot

Thanks
