I have a planned account, and I really need to use my mobile hotspot right now. What do I have to do? Mobile hotspot is included in my features so how do I subscribe?
A planned account? What is that? You should call customer service at *611 from your phone and request they check your account to verify that you add or use the mobile hotspot feature on your line.
More Everything and newer plans have mobile hotspot built in. You just need to turn it on on your phone.
Having the mobile hotspot feature available is super convenient, STAMCD59. Here is how to turn in on with most phones. http://vz.to/2kguJLN
Ann154 is correct. You should verify if your account includes the mobile hotspot. As sprmankalel, points out the More Everything and newer Verizon plans, have the mobile hotspot included with your data.

I am using the KYOCERA phone and it says that i need to subscribe to the mobile hotspot service but it will not let me
Having the same problem sonce I activated my new phone. My new phone says I have to subscribe to use my mobile hotspot.
Right before my new phone arrived at the door I was using hotspot on my old phone. We pay for the more expensive unlimited plan just for the hotspot alone....
So activate new phone now hotspot won't turn on. Call and they say it's in the plan all that doesn't make any sense.
My wife then takes my old phone...
2 hours or so after we were just using its hotspot and I got my new phone in the mail activated....
So she takes it into verizon and gets the same plan I had on it.. Get home and now it's saying the same exact thing that she has to subscribe to use hotspot and to call..
Calls the number which it provided (same as I did when it said it on my new phone)
They go through the same process trying to figure it out this was yesterday. Friday 8/9/19
Nobody on any level can figure out how to get the hotspot to work or why it's not working. They are trying to figure it out. And said alot of customers are having this problem and that they are working on it that it should work within 48 to 72 hours.......
If someone figures it out before they let us know something I'd love to know what to do because we use our hotspot for alot of things including school and work in which my wife has things due this weekend and doesn't know what she's going to do now.......
As someone who always uses my own mobile hotspot feature, I realize how important it is. Let’s get to the bottom of this. A private message has been sent to assist you further.

I am having the exact problem ...but for 2 1/2 months now
cdubbs97, We're sorry to hear that you're having problems with activating Mobile Hotspot, we're here to help. What's the make and model of your phone? What plan are you on?

I have the Kyocera Pro 2 and Do More Unlimited plan. The phone tells me I need to supscribe to turn the mobile hotspot on. Our plan on my verizon shows that I have the mobile hotspot included.
That link doesn't seem to have anything to do with turning on a mobile hotspot
We will get your Mobile Hotspot up and running! I have sent a Private Note so tha we can review the current account setup. I will look forward to working with you further. - YaleK_VZW
I am having the same problem and was on hold for two hours until 9 when the time is up for the support line about ready to cancel everything
So sorry to hear about the issues with enabling mobile hotspot on your service and issues with getting help, Jbrowning. We would never want you to consider leaving the Verizon family and it's vital that we figure this out as we understand how useful this feature is. As has been mentioned earlier in this forum, the Start Unlimited plan does not have mobile hotspot included so if you have that plan, you would want to get a plan that does include it and you can view all of our unlimited plans here: vzw.com/plans/unlimited If your plan does support the feature, we're happy to take a closer look at this and you can check the Private Note we have sent.

You need to verify your plan has the mobile hotspot feature or not. If it does and you still don't have the mobile hotspot, then you should check if you have a hotspot block on your line. If your plan doesn't have it, then you need to change your plan to one that has the feature.
We are sorry about the trouble, mrsjhimmel. We know this is an important feature, and we would love to help. Please reply to our private note.
