Larry, I'm curious if you got that info from one of their representatives or from a local store. It's interesting that in this case, the T-Mobile left-hand does not know what the T-Mobile right hand is doing apparently. How bizarre! This reminds me more of Verizon than my previous T-Mobile

Well, I wouldn't anticipate using mine that much to talk, actually talk. I assume that this is active talk time. So if you were just out and about and wearing the watch without your phone, and you don't talk on it very much, but maybe check a few notifications or do some other stuff here and

Mary, I had the same question and unfortunately the same experience when calling TMobile. The last CSR I spoke to told me that I would get the 3 month free offer only if I ordered through TMobile. Since the rep was not able to tell me if there was a long wait or even if they would have them in

I called a couple times just to check my order was right even though on the T-mobile page it was. I am not buying my device out right though. Going to pay the 45 down plus the sales tax. Then pay the watch off in 3 or so months. Maybe get apple on the phone if you can't get threw to T-Mobile. On

My problem isn't with where you live, it's when you can't communicate well enough with someone who doesn't speak your language, which I don't, so that the communications just don't get where they need to be. And no, you don't pick a carrier when you do the ordering process with Apple. I got all

Thanks, Anna. I've heard a couple of people talking about problems they're having with the iOS 11 beta, so since I didn't participate in that cycle, and have no first-hand experience, I will probably wait a couple of days to hear about the bugs and then decide if I want to order a Watch or just

Hi Mary, AT had no clue about the watches when I called last week to ask about their plan, so I ordered from Apple. I wasn't asked to pick a carrier during the ordering process, so I guess whatever linking of my watch to my mobile account and phone will need to be done once the watch gets
