Apple watch can not connect to cellular network

Having an issue with a new apple watch i just purchased. Went into the store to have a rep try an active the device they told me that the IMEI was unable to be found. Called into apple support and they told me this is a carrier issue. Got home called into the support center and we got to 3 way with Verizon support and apple support no luck. Apple says IMEI and EID is good and that the IMEI and SEID was all i need to get it actived. Verizon says that the IEMI is unable to be found. spent about 3 hours on the phone trying to get the watch activated no luck. I have a brand new apple watch that doesn't want to be added onto the Verizon network. Searched the web and found that this is a common issue. Does anyone have a tip in making the apple watch connect to the cellular network? I am on the unlimited plan and i have a iphone 8 plus.

We want you to be able to activate your watch so you can start using it, DustBuns. We'd like to take another look into what's going on. I noticed you posted last month. Were you ever able to get the watch activated? Please tell us more about where you are with the watch now.
