What does shared vs. individual data allowance mean?

VLE Mobile family plans operate on an individual data model, meaning each line receives its own data allowance rather than sharing from a common pool. This approach offers several advantages for modern families.

• The full data amount of the selected plan tier

• Its own high-speed data allowance

• Independent throttling when the limit is reached

• Separate data carryover accumulation
  
  

• Line 1: 15GB high-speed data

• Line 2: 15GB high-speed data

• Line 3: 15GB high-speed data

• Line 4: 15GB high-speed data

• Total: 60GB across the family
  
  

• Each member manages their own usage

• One heavy user doesn’t affect the others

• Clear accountability for data consumption
  
  

• More total data than typical shared plans

• Unused data carries over per line

• Each line builds its own reserve
  
  

• Know exactly when throttling occurs

• Plan usage on a per-line basis

• No surprise slowdowns due to shared overages
  
  

• 2GB: $5

• 5GB: $10

• 10GB: $20
  
  

• Monitor usage through the family dashboard

• Set alerts at 80% usage thresholds

• Use Wi-Fi when available

• Take advantage of unlimited data carryover

• Consider upgrading high-usage lines individually
  
  

Note: The Unlimited Plan provides 20GB of high-speed data per line, followed by reduced speeds at 3Mbps with no hard data cap—ideal for families with varying data needs.
