Solved: Activate SIM for GPS watch?

WeeJoolz · ‎14-12-2020

Looking for help, I’ve bought my son a gps watch and it came with an o2 SIM, I’ve charged the watch and topped up the account but can’t seem to find out how to activate the new SIM?

@WeeJoolz

The sim is activated when you top up so I guess the problem will be with the data apn.

You'll need to enter these settings into the watch data section:

Name : o2 mobile web

APN : PAYG - payandgo.o2.co.uk

Proxy, Port : Please leave blank

Username - PAYG - payandgo

Password - password

Server - Please leave blank

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Currently using:
Pixel 7a (O2 & Lyca), One Plus 6 (Sfr), iPhone 12 Pro Max (Vodafone)
