Unlimited Data Sim but limited to 100GB?

I have the unlimited data sim. I've ordered it to do me until my home broadband is installed. However checking it it says "unlimited" but then underneath it , one the account it says I've used 88GB of 100GB limit. There's no mention of gifting as a header to this section.

Is this 100gb? will I be charged a fortune if i go over? I have another week before my internet is installed.

What was the exact msg?

It's only talking about data that you may potentially gift from the 1st 100GB of all your data to other nos. on your a/c if you choose to. It's just a warning just in case you wanted to. You may safely ignore it & carry on using data for your own purposes including hotspotting.

As you use data for your own use you are eating into this gifting allowance even when you are not actually gifting it.

The message is probably referring to your Gifting Allowance, if you don't Gift Data to another Number on your Account, or don't intend to then I would just ignore it. 

As long as you Plan is UL Data then that's you have, you can easily check your Data Allowance by going to http://add-on.ee.co.uk/status whist using your Device or any Device connected to the UL Sim
