Unable to receive or make calls from iPhone post iOS 18 update

Is anyone else having issues with calls failing/not being able to receive calls after iOS 18 update? It starts working again temporarily after switching phone off and on again, but within a few hours, I can't make or receive calls again until I restart the phone. This started immediately after updating to iOS 18.

I am facing similar isssue, as in call fails many times and that call doesn’t get registered in Call history. So sometime when some unknown caller calls, and call fails, I don’t have option to call back as that number is not registered in call history

This is not a carrier issue I am pretty sure because I faced this on WhatsApp calls , FaceTime calls as well. I tested multiple times in flight mode with only WiFi on, even then it’s the same . They did it intentionally for older devices only I guess . Forcing us to upgrade .
