Want to buy a smartwatch without the $10 monthly data plan

I would like to buy a smartwatch from Xfinity, but i do not want to connect it to any data plan. i simply want to connect it to my phone using Blutooth. So, for this I should not be paying $10 a month for the smartwatch. Yet, when I try to checkout, I see that $10 charge is already included in the first month charge.

Please clarify if $10 monthly fee is unavoidable.

@ddp1 In order to purchase the watch through Xfinity, you would need to have the data plan and the $10 data charge applied to the account. I hope this helps! Let us know if you have any additional questions. We are here to help!
