Remove Cellular Data Plan from iPhone 12

I want to remove a cellular data plan from my iPhone 12. According to instructions, I should be able to tap the data plan and select "Remove Data Plan." However, "remove data plan" is not an option that is showing.

how can I permanently remove Cellular Data from my iPad Pro? My iPad has Cellular Data that I decided not to activate; however, the iPad randomly switches to Cellular Data while I am using my in-home Wi-Fi. I have turned it off in “Setting”; it still randomly switched from Wi-Fi to Cellular Data. How can I permanently get rid of the Cellar Data option on my IPad?

remove cellular plan I want to remove an eSIM cellular plan from my iPhone XR, but the option "Remove Cellular Plan" that appears in RED when one clicks on that plan in Settings...Cellular does not appear for this particular eSIM plan. In Settins...Cellular, it shows "No SIM" next to the name of the plan (whereas other eSIM plans just show "Off"). How do I remove the eSIM?

iOS update uses up cellular data when on wi-fi Both iOS 18.0 and 18.1 updates have used up my cellular data allowances when I had good wi-fi connection. Is there any way that cellular can be switched off only for these big iOS updates, or any way that I could at least be warned that cellular is used when on wi-fi? Or do I just have to remember to disconnect cellular every time I do an update?

If it is an eSIM, Remove the data plan. If it is a physical SIM card, Contact yor Carrier. For better clarity watch the GIF below

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, it doesn't address my issue. I have an eSIM (100%, absolutely an eSIM). But "Remove Data Plan" isn't an option (literally not an option).
