Activation issue

So, 5 days ago, I activated an iPhone 13 mini on my account and I have talked with customer support every day since then. I'm trying to pair an Apple Watch with my account, but when I get to the cellular activation stage it tells me that the iPhone I'm pairing it with isn't active on the account. I'm able to make calls, receive calls, send and receive text messages. When I check the devices section on my account under the iphone it says activation in progress, and when I click on details, it says we are assigning a new number to your phone, I do not want a new number. I'm getting tired of talking with the support guys and feel like I'm getting the run around. I've been told multiple times to wait 10-12 hours, or 15 minutes, or a couple of hours, and once been told to wait until the 22nd. How can i get this issue resolved?

Well that’s kinda the problem. I’ve been in touch with tier 2 support. And the issue still isn’t fixed. I’m feeling like I’m getting the run around and I fully intend on speaking to a supervisor tomorrow when I call again
