Carrier name not apearing on new Galaxy Note 9

[AlanDn]

I just purchased a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and for some reason the Carrier name does not appear on the top left of the screen like it did on my S7 edge.

The Note 9 is model SM-960U1 and it is running stock Android 9 ringtone free at: Download Free Ringtone
Samsung ringtone
Thanks

Whereabouts on the top-left of the screen? On the status bar, or when you pull the notifications down?

I don't have a Samsung, but phones that are closer to stock Android than Samsung haven't shown carrier name on the status bar for many years, and screen shots of Samsung's version of Android 9 don't show that either. On my Pixel you have to fully expand the notifications for the carrier name to appear (at the bottom, as it happens). So maybe Samsung have followed stock Android in their new UI and (re)moved that? Or maybe there's an option hidden deep in their settings?
