@aartmunn  As long as your plan is active you can use any data add-ons just make sure data is turned on to be able to use it. If it doesn't work then make sure you have the correct APN settings on your device.

You can use the data add-on.  You won't be able to transfer it.  Also you would need to setup APN settings in order to use data.

Make sure you have the correct APN settings.

Yes, data add-ons can be used with plans without data. Sorry, but data cannot be transferred.

@aartmunn This is no different than if you were to purchase a data add on. It is yours to use when and where you see fit. Unfortunately you can't give it to anyone else.
