Apple watch paired plan £5

Joealan — Wed, 01 May 2024 16:20:46 GMT

Hello,

I just got my own Apple watch from a third party, and I wanted to link it to my current sim only contract in EE. I can see that there is a £7 1-month paired plan available to activate during the setting up of the watch, however, can see in the EE community that people managed to get a 12-month contract for £5 a month by calling 150. I have tried to call several times, but the agents do not know what I am talking about.

Is it true that there is no other option anymore to add a watch to my current pay monthly plan other than a £7 pounds rolling contract? seems a bit too much on top of my current contract just to use my allowance.

Thanks!

Joe

Hi @babyreddevils ,

Is this package still available? I can only get the offer for the £7 pounds 1m paired plan.

thanks,

Joe

@Joealan

The watch has its own data allowance it doesn’t use the phone sim data allowance. It’s an additional line on your account and only the call/text allowance can be used on the watch. £7 isn’t bad when you actually think about it as you can leave your phone at home and still be within contact via a 2nd line on your account. To my knowledge the £5 12 month contract is still available. Plus you’ll always get a better deal by committing to a longer term ie 12 months (£60 for the year plus any contractual price increase) as opposed to a 30 day rolling contract that you can stop with 30 days notice and start again when every you want. I can bet you don’t need cellular data on the watch everyday for 365 days.

I’m 7 months in and still haven’t use 1Gb.

@Joealan Only if you call customer services is the £5 12 month watch contract available.

Hello both!

thanks for your answers. I literally asked for the 12m £5 watch contract or any other contract which is more than 1m for my watch, and they said only the 1m £7 is available. Tried 3 times with different agents and got the same response.

thanks!

Hi All,

according to EE there is no 12m contract anymore for watch paired plans, the only option is a 1m rolling contract for £7 a month currently.
