About data usage
About data usage
You’ll use data if your device connects to the internet over our network.
Things like normal browsing and email only use a small amount of data, whereas others like watching videos, running apps in the background, sending messages through WhatsApp or messenger, using sat nav on your device or playing games online can use significantly more.
You can’t go over your data allowance. We’ll text you when you’ve used 80 per cent and again when it runs out. There are no hidden charges.

A Spend Cap can help you limit usage outside of your monthly allowance by restricting your use of services like roaming and photo messaging, so you can stay in control of your bill. We’ll text you if you're close to reaching your cap.
