Connectivity Plans that allow us to share our SMARTY airtime and data allowances

How about offering additional Connectivity Plans that allow us to share our SMARTY airtime and data allowances with our smartwatch or eSIM-enabled tablets?

    WelshPaul  Won't that need Smarty to work with Esims first?

    Is it possibly going to be subject to people buying one plan unlimited and then trying to share it with half of their street?

    eSIMs would indeed be needed for this to work. As there is already another topic asking for eSIMs, I didn’t bother bringing the subject up.

    With regard to abuse, other networks charge somewhere between £5 and £10 for this feature and limit how many devices you can have (that’s £5-£10 per device). Vodafone allows a maximum of three devices. Remember, any device that has a connectivity plan will use your mobile number. So those devices receive all your calls and texts too! Would you want your neighbours to receive those?

    WelshPaul  I was rather thinking in terms of a whole family of many people sharing one unlimited plan.

    If you say that they can limit devices, the may solve the issue though.
