    Anyone with Virgin?

    Use a hotspot and stream data?

    Normally goes over their fair usage policy.

    https://www.independent.ie/business/technology/adrian-weckler-ive-reached-my-limit-with-false-unlimited-mobile-data-claims-35657269.html

    This link is from 2 years ago, but 2 years ago three mobile had a fair usage policy they never really implemented - which is good news real users of "unlimited" data.

    Well, dude in the phone shop said apparently some individual tried to run his business through a hotspot, and basically racked up thousands of GB's within the month.

    They cut him off - maybe they sued his ass also - can't remember what he said.

    But basically if you go over your 60 GB policy with three, it's not the end of the world.

    I don't know if the same can be said for Virgin.

    Can it?
    According to that article - probably not; but like I said, that was 2 years ago.

    Anyone have experience with Virgin mobiles data plans?


    I would expect it's similar with Eir?

    Is three the only "real" unlimited data supplier in Ireland?
