I keep getting this meesage but i don't share with nobody! I have wifi in the house ! And while driving phone is not sharing with any device! I am on a unlimited plan so i can'r use 80% of my data as my data is unlimited and i don't share internet with no devices so why i keep getting this message everymonth?

Hi @buzdugancv

Thanks for coming here.

This message is to let you know if you wanted to gift data you would have to do this before you use the full 100% of giftable data.

Full information can be found in our Unlimited Plans, Help page.

Leanne.

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.

Notice that it didn't say "You've gifted data you can gift" just that "You've used data you can gift".
