4gee options

OK we have family plan with 3 lines and we can transfer mobile data allowance between each line.  I am now looking to add another line and 4gee home router. I have simplified my options down to two and have some questions regarding them, hope you can help.. I know with our phones we can get around 56gb download speed on 4g.

 

OPTION 1 - PURCHASE unlimited 4GEE PLAN WITH 4GROUTER 2 £55PPM WITH £50 UPFRONT COST.

Q. Is the sim card classed as an additional line?

Q. Can we transfer data 100gb to additional lines?

 

Option 2- add an additional unlimited line to my plan and fit my own 4g router (this would allow for gifting data to additional lines).

Q. DO EE SELL THE 4g Router 2 AS A STAND ALONE PRODUCT?

Q. WILL I RECIEVE THE SAME SUPPORT FROM EE?

Q. IS THE UNLIMITED SIM ONLY PLAN SUBJECT TO A FAIR USAGE ALLOWANCE AND IF SO WHAT IS IT?

Option 1

A- Yes it will be classed as an additional line.

A- Yes you can transfer data but its not 100GB to each device its 100GB total.

 

Option 2

A- No they do not

A- Yes why wouldn't you?

A- Yes all unlimited are subject to Fair Usage. If you constantly go over 1000GB they will deem you a business user and revert your tariff to a business tariff at a higher rate. Also more than 12 devices I believe is deemed business as wellconnecting to it

On top of what @BrendonH has correctly told you I would add:

 

Option 2

1. Yes, they do as PAYG for £130- see PAYG 4GEE Home Router . You may then fit it with an unlimited data phone SIM & gift data to other nos. on the same a/c, subject to the FUP outlined by @BrendonH .

 

OK it's not the 4GEE Home Router 2 but it fulfils the same function.
