Buying add-on for EU in addition to using 12gb data allowance
Hi,
I've searched for an answer but haven't found anything that specifically answers my question.
My daughter is going to Italy tomorrow and so will have her 12gb data allowance to use. As she is staying in a place with no Wi-Fi I know that this will be used therefore I intend to buy an add-on today before she leaves.
My question is, does the 12gb "free" allowance gets used first and then auto switch to the add-on package I've purchased? And just a supplementary question; if the add-on gets used can I just buy another one and this will immediately be available for her to use?
Many thanks

Roscoe_3368388 If she has a plan with more than 12GB data, she can have access to anything over the 12GB limit by buying an EU Data Roaming pass for 1 day (£3) or 3 days(£7).
Another way round it would be to buy an International Esim such as Airalo, Freely, Roamless etc and that could be turned on instead of the Smarty sim for data. That may work out cheaper, depending upon what you expect her to use.
