Iwatch cellular service.

I’m getting an iwatch for my birthday. I’m trying to decide if I should get the watch with cellular service. My understanding is the cellular service is an additional $10/month beside the initial cost of the watch. . Can you stop and start the $10/month fee?

No, at least not how you are thinking.

 

There is an activation fee when you first add the watch to your account(probably $30). You can cancel the line associated with the watch if you choose, but then there would be another activation fee($30 again) next time you wanted to re-add the watch to your account. Additionally, if the watch was purchased on a device payment plan, the remaining balance would become due when you cancelled the line.

 

If you don't want the monthly fee, simply get the Apple Watch without cellular capability.

Great question! It is always important to know what options are available before you make a decision. We are glad to help and answer any questions you have. Our compatible plan can have the number share line for the watch at a $10.00 cost. You are able to get the device under our device payment plan options.

I just added an Apple Watch yesterday. The activation fee is now $40. The $10 fee is free the first month. However, there are taxes and surcharges on top of the $10, which in my state (New York) added another $4.83 on top of the $10
