Apple watch

[Denny1919]

With the change to the new $60 10GB plan, has anyone activated their Apple Watch?? I’ve gone through the process in the app and get the message that I can activate it.

Apple Watch needs a shareable data plan.

“TELUS Mobility postpaid customer must be on a SharePlus or Your Choice Plan. Not available for TELUS business or corporate customers.”

Yah I get that but when you activate it, it adds 1 gb of shareable data....

The 10gb plan works just fine with the watch. The watch has its own 1gb data, so even though it won’t share your non-share 10gb, it will happily use its 1gb it comes with, while still sharing your voice/text from primary number.

Mine is working fine

Hey they declined me today. Can you offer any details?

Figured it out... just activate yourself using the Watch app on the iPhone. Activated in a few seconds. No issues and nothing about it’s not shareable

So my apple watch 3 was working fine with my nonshareable 10 gbplan I got as part of their holiday promotion. But now they unlinked it from my iphone and said it would not work with a nonshare plan and I would have to switch to a different plan. The watch as now listed on my account as an orphaned watch with it's own number but I can't actually call it or receive a call when away from my iphone. I am still paying 10/month for it. Anybody have this happen and, if so, any solution? 

[Ahmadjr]

Did you call in and try to make changes or randomly they changed your account?

I would have them cancel it and then just go through the Watch app and activate it again.

Ahmadjr is yours still working with the non-share plan?

[Ahmadjr]

Yes sir still going. Haven’t had an issue since the day I activated.
