Fair usage

Hi

I got a smarty sim with my MERCUSYS  Mi-fi router which I bought as I travel in Europe for about 3 weeks in a month…When it ran out I went for an unlimited data plan but now realise, correct me if I’m wrong, Its a complete waste of money as it seems I only get 12gb of data with this “fair usage nonsense” so I may as well just get a 12 gb data sim…Anybody know the best data only sim to get for travelling abroad to use in a mi go router that doesn’t use this Fair usage policy as a way to just get more money out of you…as it seems this is not a good option for what I require

Thx

    While it may not be the best option for you, it's not a way too get money out of you. Smarty need to pay the overseas network for data you use, so they are unlikely to let you have unlimited use.

    Page 18 of the Price Guide explains how to buy anode on for either 1 or 3 days to give you access to more data in your plan.
