Hi @Huh_u_exist 

As you have posted in Pay monthly I presume you are on a contact? If so you can buy a Bolt on to last you until you are able to upgrade.

Hi @Huh_u_exist 

You need to check in MY O2 and see if you are on a Flexible tariff (which means you can flex your tariff up and down monthly) https://www.o2.co.uk/refresh/flexible-tariffs 

Or again, whilst in My O2, check if you are eligible to upgrade to a higher tariff.

If not, then buy a bolt on as I suggested above.

Longer term, if you pay your device off you can take out a sim only plan with lots of data

Finally @Huh_u_exist  why don't you use Wifi to watch You Tube? That will cost you nothing at all?
