What is the difference between Basic and Enhanced Speed?

Getting started

Both are unlimited data. They differ in how much runs at full speed each day, and in the speed the connection continues at once that daily amount is used.

Basic suits everyday browsing, messaging, maps and booking rides. Enhanced Speed gives a larger daily full-speed amount and a faster continued speed, which leaves more room for social feeds and video.

Every plan prints both of its own numbers before you pay. Pro Store carries larger daily amounts again, for people who want more.

What does unlimited data mean on your plans?

There is no total allowance to run out. Data keeps working for every day of the plan, and you are never cut off and never asked for more money.

Each day includes an amount that runs at full speed. Once a day passes that amount, the connection carries on at the slower speed the plan states, until the next day begins and full speed returns.

Both numbers are printed on every plan before you pay: how much runs at full speed each day, and what speed it continues at. We do not hide either in a fair-use footnote.

How much data do I get at full speed each day?

It depends on the plan, and every plan says. That daily figure is the main thing that separates one unlimited plan from another at the same destination.

The shelf runs from a few hundred megabytes a day at the cheap end up to several gigabytes a day in Pro Store. Pick the one that matches how you actually use your phone.

The amount resets at the start of each new day of the plan. Nothing rolls over.

Can I stream video on an unlimited plan?

Inside the daily full-speed amount, yes, at whatever the local network can deliver.

After that amount is used, it depends on the plan’s continued speed. The faster continued speeds carry video; the slower ones are for messaging, maps and browsing rather than streaming.

If video matters to your trip, pick a plan with a larger daily amount and a faster continued speed. Both numbers are on every plan.
