O2 Sim only and Apple Watch watch cellular

[Abz]

Hi, currently on Vodafone, hoping to move over to 02, looking at a sim only deal, but don’t know if I have the option to sign up to keeping my watch cellular. Currently with voda I pay £5 a month, do O2 offer this?

O2 is the same £5 per month but you need to have an iPhone on a refresh tariff to qualify.

Hi thank Mi5, I’m new to 02, what’s a refresh tariff?

Ok, that seems like I have to sign up to to a phone and air time plan. Which doesn’t work for me, hence why I’m going for a sim only. I’ve got an IPhone XR and don’t really have the need to sign up to a new contract. So basically the cellular contract for the watch cannot be offered to me if I were to buy a sim only package?

You can as long as you have an iPhone.
