Will using my iPhone's hotspot cost extra money?
I have an iPhone 4s (which is up to date on all IOS updates) and I have the unlimited data plan at AT&T. I'm leaving for a road trip tomorrow, and I wanted to turn the hotspot on so I could use that Wi-Fi on my laptop during the trip so I won't get bored. It says I need to set up an account for it, which I will do later… But would any extra charges be added to my bill?
I'm almost positive it doesn't. My mom has an iPhone 4s also and she lets my sister and I use her hotspot when we go on roadtrips. She is really frugal and I doubt she would let us use it if it costed extra money xD Maybe look it up on the apple website. Hope I helped!
I would talk to AT&T just to be safe. I don't know how AT&T's plan for you but I don't think it will charge your hotspot since you mentioned that you're on a unlimited plan. For my carrier, they charge me if i'm out of my carrier's range area. (like if i'm in another country)
You're currently on Unlimited data; Tethering/mobile hotspot is not offered with your data plan. There are a few options that will give you hotspot included at no charge: 5GB of data for $50 OR AT&T Mobile Share plans. Either way, it would require that you forfeit your unl.data
- Will I be charged extra if I use personal hotspot on my iphone 4s? (T-mobile)? I have unlimited data. I've looked online, but can't find a definite answer. If I will be charged extra, will I be charged a certain amount per day/week?
- Personal hotspot cost money? Or included with iphone 5c? I just got the iphone 5c today and it lets me give out Wi-Fi. My question is am I paying extra for this or is it taking away from my 4GB of data that I have monthly? I have att and live in Ca. I was planning on using the personal hotspot for my laptop to do homework. If it does use my monthly datat how much do you think my laptop would use for an hour of browsing watching videos?
- If someone calls me using an iPhone app, will it cost me any extra money? My friends been calling me using an iPhone app. She is not long distance, we used to talk all the time and her phone has just been turned off (her reasoning for using the app). Will it cost me any extra money for her to do that? Its a free app.
- If I use my iPhone as a hotspot, will it charge me extra on my sharing plan with Verizon? I'm mainly asking to see so we can get rid of our internet maybe and use our IPhone's. However, will it affect our bills with Verizon? Please help and if you need more details I will add updates to this!
