Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 LTE Pairing

I am thinking of moving to O2 from Three who have been beyond awful for quite some time.

 

I have a Galaxy Watch 5 LTE and want to use LTE smartwatch pairing to share my mobile number and allowances with the watch.

 

I have found conflicting information regarding this on O2, so could anyone tell me please, whether this is possible with O2, how much it costs per month, and exactly how painful is it on a scale of 1-10 to get it set up with O2?

 

I have previously used LTE pairing with other networks in the US and it was a breeze. It seems like it's next to impossible to get this set up in the UK without considerable trouble and needless interactions with support or in store staff.

Thanks @MI5 ,

 

So from that thread, I can see that it costs £5 a month, and you have to actually visit a store to get them to give you a QR in person, and that most in store staff do not have a clue about any of this and neither do support?

Yep, that's pretty much it.

Right now I would be considering Voda or EE, not O2.

It's 2023. Why can't anybody get basic things like this right?
