Mobile Hot Spot not working iphone 8

I phone 8

Paying for Hotspot in Plan

Have it set up and can discover hot spot.

BUT it will not connect

Three calls to Verizon 1 agent hung up, one call back failed and the third had me reset my phone which disconnected call with no call back. AND I still Cannot use my HOT SPOT!

When I find it from Laptop (DELL Windows 10) it DOES NOT  ask for a password, It just says I cannot connect.

Verizon Customer Service is no help here. How about the community?

Verizon didn't make your phone nor laptop, did they? If your plan has hotspot and personal hotspot isn't greyed out, it's not a Verizon issue. Sounds more your laptop.

On my iPhone 11 sometimes I have to disconnect my local WiFi for the hotspot to work.  I still have to have the iPhone 11 WiFi enabled, just not in use.
