No more data to gift?

I have gifted 80gb this month. I am on an unlimited plan and can supposedly give 100gb.

Why is my account stating no more data to give?

No, as said above, the first 100gb of your UL Data is your Gifting Allowance, so once you go past it by using it yourself, it's gone.

So do what I suggested above, Park the Full 100gb on another SIM at the beginning of each Refresh Date.

You have probablyused the other 20gb yourself.

Your first 100gb you use at the start of every Monthly Refresh Date eats into your Gifting on UL Data Plans Amount.

Best way is to Gift All of your 100gb first at the start of every Refresh Data, that way it's Safe on another Number, if you have more than 2 Numbers you can Gift onwards from the 100gb you Gifted to.

In UK - billing date is 16th August.

I have unlimited data plan and can supposedly gift 100gb and unlimited for myself.

I have 2 family members - gifted 40gb to 1 - then 20 and 20 to the other.

Surely there should be 20gb left to gift as my phone has unlimited?

 

Thanks for your replies
