Device Won't Unlock

My Pixel 7 Pro was approved to be unlocked. I got the email that says:

Current status - Approved

We've approved your request to unlock your device. Here are the instructions to complete your unlock:

1. Insert non-AT&T SIM card. The notification "SIM card isn't supported" is expected.

2. Connect device with Wi-Fi.

3. See the notification "Carrier lock removed. The device can now be used on any network."

4. Go to Settings > Network & internet > Mobile network, and confirm the non-AT&T Mobile data enable

I have inserted an active T-Mobile sim, connected to Wi-Fi, but I'm not getting the unlock notification in step 3.

After numerous different chat agents, one finally knew enough to actually help me instead of throwing their hands up.

Wow, I'm so glad I don't have AT&T and have to deal with this abysmal customer service 😬

Does the phone work?  If not, do you get some other message?

The phone does not work. It is carrier locked. I don't get any messages. Just the notification from step 1.

I contacted through chat. None of the support agents understand the process and are extremely unhelpful.

It's not account specific as I don't have an AT&T account (and I never will if this experience has shown me anything).
