Suddenly this $10/mo apple watch plan is costing me $28 a month because of taxes and "fees" (alien.top)

WTF. This is my first month with a cellular apple watch.

I just got the first bill and its almost SIXTY FIVE DOLLARS in addition to my phone.

$35 activation fee

$10 watch data

$18 for taxes and fees

While I definitely disagree with the $35 activation fee, I understand it's just a one time charge, but holy shit how can anyone justify almost $30 a month. Literally the fees and taxes cost more than the actual product.

The “stupidity” you mention in your update is not stupidity but rather how cell companies routinely do business. They consistently conjure ways to rob money from people.
