Data usage for a static caravan

Anyone have any idea how much data you would use monthly in a static caravan using iPads, tv with Netflix and Amazon and phones?

Hello @Shashoo16 

Welcome to the community!

 

Unfortunately, you have asked a classic "how long is a piece of string" type question, and there's no simple answer - it depends on the quality of the videos you're watching (SD/HD etc), how long you're watching things for, and a few other variables.


EE have an article covering some of this here that might assist you.

this is  an  educated  shot in  the dark   i would suggest one person  watch  streaming video  services  and   internet  radio  you use   approx 89 Gb   in a day  over  a 6 hour period   with  basic mah here   89 Gb per day   time   7days  =  623Gb  a week  

 

4 week in  one  month   2,492 Gb  a month   that a lot of money on pay as you go !

There is a smart benefit on sim only/phone plans called Video Data Pass that allows as much streaming as you like. You would need to sign up to a phone contract that includes one smart benefit or pay £8.99 a month (minimum 30 days).  

 

Technically you are allowed to do what you like with a sim so you could put it in a router, however whenever doing anything like this keep an eye on your data usage in your account to see it is not using data up.
