That’s interesting as my carrier advises to keep the cellular plan when buying a new watch and then they say they just transfer it over. My nearest Apple Store also said the same.
I am also with EE. I asked on their community web page and the feedback suggested to keep the plan. I then rang EE customer Services and the watch team told me to keep the plan. Apple Store echoed this even though their website says to delete the plan if you are selling your watch. Its so confusing. When I went from my S3 to my S4, I deleted the plan and then when configuring my S4, EE set up a new plan and deleted my old one.
Removing the cell plan disassociated the watch and doesn’t cancel not the plan
Exactly. The plan still continues unless you ask the carrier to cancel the plan. Hence, you can then ask your carrier to assign the plan to the new watch
[doublepost=1568660466][/doublepost]One thing I'd recommend in this chain of replies is to first update your iPhone to IOS 13 on Thursday before Friday deliver of new phone. Then, do the same, update your watch to the new Watch OS. Because both your new iPhone 11 and watch Series 5 will have new OS's on them, you should have the same OS's on your old units before backing them up for the last time. After the new OS's are onboard your current iPhone, do the watch unpair which creates a watch backup on your phone. The backup the current iPhone on either iCloud or iTunes whichever you use. After acquiring the new phone, restore it from the backup. Then pair the new watch to the new phone and restore the watch backup from the phone to the new watch. Everything I've read about this process, suggests this formula for the best success. Good luck. I've got the same situation in front of me on Friday as well.
