Data top options

Good morning 

I have a mobile wifi device that I use for camping wifi and need to be able to top up data instantly if it runs out/low. Can you please advise the best sim/package or top up option to achieve this. We only use this device for camping so it is not required to constantly have data all year round. Basically I want to be able to add data when we use it and if possible any leftover can rollover.

Hello @Wiff74

Welcome to the community. 

Could you please confirm if the data SIM you have is pay as you go or pay monthly?

Katie

Thank you. 
sorry I use a payg option for this sim. I am not sure the best way to top up as required as I don’t want to subscribe as data will get lost. The current package doesn’t roll over or allow for instant top up so if we run out during a film we have no data to top up.

@Wiff74 : Sounds like you should be using a PAYG phone SIM in it with a 30-day pack with sufficient data. When you run out of data you top-up the credit, buy the next pack & text NOW to 150 to make it start immediately.

Unused data will only rollover when you start the next pack within 7 days of the previous 1 expiring.
