Error code 08 Apple Watch Series 8 - no one at o2 can help!

[Hez]

Day 5:

We’re setting up your Apple Watch on the O2 network and we’ll text you when it’s all done. If you don’t receive a text within 24 hours, call 202 for free from your O2 mobile, quoting reference code 08.

3 o2 shops, phone calls into 202 no one has done anything to help. I’ve unpaired the Watch, restored from back up and set up as a new watch!

help please :,(

This sounds like a tip that @Dave-O2 could put into the Activate Apple Watch Guide to help others with error code 08 - very useful info, thank you, @carwynf 👍🏼

Thanks for the tag @pgn and for the information @carwynf 👍

I've now updated the Activate Apple Watch Guide with these details 😁
