$30 1gb 4g data plan

derksen_13 — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 13:44:16 GMT

I recently switched both my wife and my phone to PM. More than happy with the switch, my old plan through telus let me share data to my ipad though which I like to use for music.

Is there anyway to get a data only plan that renews only once I consume the data?

You can always use the hotspot feature on your phone to the ipad. There's no plan like you're asking. Just the add-on. You could add it to the data-only plan of course and it would be in 4G also.

There is a Data Only plan but it's expensive at $30 for 1 GB. Cheaper just to get the $50 talk/text and 8Gb + 500MB (with autopay). Use the hotspot function to use on your tablet.

I should add...

1. I'm not actually sure PM will work in an ipad.

2. The add-on doesn't renew. It runs out and then you buy another one.

I guess I should have clarified "SIM" in a cellular ipad.

TELUS has a stand alone device plan that blows the PM data plan out of the water! A Flat $5/month gives (only) 10Mb of data use but when you exceed that in a month it steps up to $10/100Mb and will continue to step up with the next steps being $20/1Gb, $35/3Gb and $50/5Gb. Then when the month ends it resets to $5 for the next month. 4G/LTE of course. It is the only TELUS plan I have seen that is a much better deal than the PM data only plan.
