data sharing

[Anonymous]

My Son, WIfe and I area ll with O2 and all have 1gb data allowance each per month. Is there any way my son can share my wire's data allowance as she does not use it and he always max's his?

Not in O2 I'm afraid.

Other networks do offer that service. vodaphone as one example.

You can add a bolt on or use wifi with O2 only.

thank you for your prompt response

You're welcome and I'm sorry I didn't have positive news for your question.

The only way kind of is for your son to borrow your wife's phone or SIM card to use her data allowance.

There was talk about a family plan at one time and it would make a lot of sense these days.

O2 will need to do something to keep up with Voda and EE.
It is available on O2 but only on business tariffs at the mo, so the technology is there, it just needs implementing.

Hoping they do a family plan as well. Love my family bolt on saved me loads on calls to rest of the family

It would definitely allow a lot more scope for people.

Seems to be a popular request....

@Toby - One for the team ?

I'm sure this will come soon. It makes sense and O2 should be matching their competitors. Hopefully @Toby @Anonymous or @Marjo can pass this through to the right channels.
