Pixel 5a unable to activate eSIM

iamcsr

Is Verizon aware of users being unable to activate the eSIM on new pixel 5a's? I spent 4 hours talking with support and were not able to get it activated and it must be the phone. However, Reddit is also full of people not being to activate the esim on verizon, but not having problems on any other carrier so it seems to be verizon specific. I was told by the reps it was not generating an ICCID. I also had a ticket escalated but never heard back. Is this something verizon is aware of or working on a fix?

iamcsr, we regret to hear that your Google Pixel 5a could not be activated. Does your device have the model number of G1F8F-1660?

I assume so, the phone only says G1F8F but unlike earlier pixels there's only 1 version of the 5a

I had the same issue being in the phone forever yesterday with th 5a5g as well

Clarification: I had the same issue being on the phone yesterday with customer service and then a tech for an hour and a half w/ 5a5g as well. Chatted support after and they're mailing a free physical SIM. Frustrating. Nice customer reps but seems silly they haven't fixed this. Purchased from Google store as per Verizon website.
