I can’t activate my Apple Watch

I’ve tried to activate my Apple Watch, but after following all the steps it keeps showing me an error message: “Sorry, looks like we are having technical difficulties. Please try again.”

I tried unpairing the Apple Watch and then pairing it  again. Restarting both the watch and iPhone. The software is updated for both devices . Nothing works.

user_u79oay Sorry to hear that this watch is giving you so much trouble. Are you still having trouble getting things set up, or were you able to get assistance?

I called , and I was told the issue was that I had a limit of 5 lines actives. I was told they would call me in the following  days so I’m still waiting on that
