UK Shared Data

Anonymous
Not applicable

Earlier this week I successfully signed up to a Shared Data plan: One Pay Monthly Refresh contract is the "leader" with 5Gb data allowance sharing with two "member" Pay Monthly Simplicity contracts.

 

A new page has appeared in My O2 which shows in a nice graphical way the leader and the member devices and how much data is being used by each device and how much is left etc. However, after nearly one week of data usage the member devices, the overall leader allowance is still showing 5Gb - and the members are showing up as having not consumed any data.

 

My question is: what is the length of the time-delay between the time that data is consumed and the time that it shows up on the data sharing page My O2?

 

Many thanks in advance for any help with this.

sorry, busy with the o2 travel project Destroy

 

I have done a bit of digging about this one. Data is suppose to show 20/30 minutes after it has been used by the way.

So that is a fault! Whilst digging for information I've discovered an issue with data resetting on my o2 and the shared tariffs are one of the ones affected. So it has been reported, and IT are working on it.

If you can, ring 202 and report it. They will raise a case for your account also. That way your account will be monitored for the fault.

Hope this helps.

I think it usually takes up to 24 hours for the data usage to update

Good advice for everyone to note @Cleoriff 

Too many questions are confused by people posting stuff that they have no knowledge of 😞

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
