hyemi — Sat, 10 Sep 2022 08:28:14 GMT

I am an international customer who uses prepaied sim.

after i used up all of my 5 gb datas, I did 'add-on' twice a few days ago.

so i can see my history that i paid on my three account.

but i cannot use my new data at all.

i think my new data is not activated, but i cannot find ways to fix it. my message and call is okay.

what should i do? i am not in uk, so i have to fix this problem online

Hi, Hyemi.

Welcome to the Three Community.

It's difficult to determine what might be causing that to happen. From what you've said, you should be able to use the additional data normally once you've added it.

Some things that are worth keeping in mind - You can only use allowances for a maximum of 2 months in Go Roam destinations before the roaming get's disabled. Also, there's a fair use limit of 12GB each month, once the 12GB is reached, using additional data beyond the 12GB would cost 0.3p per MB. Is it possible one of these things is impacting your ability to use the allowances?

Pete.

on the 03/10/2023 I topped up my three account £15 and purchased a 10GB add on for £12 with my Three cash balance. The 10GB data add on was £12 and should have left my Three account balance with £3 i have checked this months charges and i have been billed £15 and the 10GB data add on states its current start date 03/10/2023 my data useage indicates 0GB and I’m unable to use my data add-on even though it is active since 03/10/2023
