Hi

I have ordered direct from Apple the Apple watch ultra 2 which is due to be delivered today 🙂 

I want to activate this and pair with my IPHONE on EE FULL WORKS SIM ONLY monthly plan I have already.. I do want this watch to be able to use the cellular facility so I can use it without my phone with me, How do I do this? and is there a charge for it? 

I do know there is a £7 data plan or does this include the cellular with this watch?

Thanks

Stuart

@stuarttunstall Yeah exactly even when out of range of the phone it is sharing the call and text allowance of the phone plan, so there is no additional charges for calls and texts when using the watch out of proximity of the phone.

Just to add it is all set up now and seems to be working OK, suspect it will cost me the £7 lol 

Thanks for all the help

Why do EE make this so hard?

I've recently taken out the Full Works iPhone plan on sim only & have a watch plan (eSim only)  I started prior to 28th August 2024, which is  on a rolling 30 day contract.

Does this mean I don't have to do anything as it's a rolling 30 day contract & it shows as £7/month but in reality it's more (£8.64) due to cost increases over the years.

So it really only started last month or do I have to speak to someone to switch things about?

TIA.

Hi @Number6,

Welcome to the EE Community

So you are still using the same phone as before paired with the watch, you have just moved the number to a Full Works SIM only plan? 

If so there would be nothing you would need to do with the watch since it would still be paired to the same phone. The discount for the watch plan should go active 24-48 hours after having moved to an eligible plan. Does the discount show within the add-ons for the watch number? Have you had a bill since moving to the Full Works plan?
