Inquiry about higher upfront payment option for Apple Watch Ultra 3

[XMSK]

Dear EE Customer Support,

I would like to ask whether it’s possible to order the Apple Watch Ultra 3 on a subscription plan while paying a larger upfront amount than usual.

Specifically:

• What is the maximum upfront payment allowed in this case?
• Would this affect the monthly payments or the contract terms?
• Are there any additional requirements or eligibility criteria I should be aware of?

Thank you very much for your help.

@XMSK  You can only pay upfront what is shown you cannot pay more upfront as the contract cost is set for that amount each month.

Hi @XMSK,

Welcome to the EE Community

As @Chris_B mentioned if you were looking to take an Apple Watch 3 Ultra on contract with a data plan included, there is just a set upfront price you can pay.

As an alternative if you wanted to buy the watch SIM free, without a data plan, you can buy it on 0% finance and on finance agreements of 12 or 24 months you can customise how much you want to pay upfront to have a lower monthly payment. The maximum you can pay depends on which model you go for as some are more expensive than others so allow more to be paid upfront. 

You can see that option here and just click pay over 3 to 24 months to see the different upfront options and how it will effect monthly payments. The eligibility criteria can also be seen on that page for the finance agreement.

Buying one SIM free you would also have the option of adding a data plan for the watch to your mobile account separately at a later date if you wanted one. It costs £7 a month.

Looks like the first order had the wrong colour option selected, so I had to reorder it — but the replacement’s already on the way and should land on Monday 😎

Honestly, I think it’s gonna look insanely good next to my orange Pro Max — this combo just hits different, especially with the autumn vibes 🍂🖤⌚️
