Important things to know
- When setting data limits for a Red Share connection(s), the limit(s) set allow the connection access up to the amount of data set. It does not guarantee the connection all of the data set, as it is shared data that other connections have access to and its first come first served.
- When a Red Share connection(s) has a data limit set above the monthly data allowance (e.g. if Flexi Data is purchased and a data limit is set higher than the monthly data allowance). We reset the applicable Red Share connection(s) limit to maximum when the billing cycle is renewed.
- When resigning or changing your plan onto another eligible plan with a lower monthly data allowance. Data limits will reset to maximum once the new term or plan is activate.
- Our staff are not able to adjust a set data limit.
