WTF. This is my first month with a cellular apple watch.

I just got the first bill and its almost SIXTY FIVE DOLLARS in addition to my phone.

$35 activation fee

$10 watch data

$18 for taxes and fees

While I definitely disagree with the $35 activation fee, I understand it’s just a one time charge, but holy shit how can anyone justify almost $30 a month. Literally the fees and taxes cost more than the actual product.

    Mine is like 12/months /mo with fees on Verizon, and it piggybacks off my phone plan data. I activated the Series 3 as my original cellular capable watch when it came out. Back then all carriers were waiving the activation charges and giving three months free, ever since then I’ve just transferred to a new watch every year and never had to pay another activation fee.
