Just picked up a used one and that came with a 100GB SIM (previous owner/emplyee had the car but had not activated the car internet/data). Presume the card is for up to 100GB over one year (whichever is met first?).
Does the car monitor data usage at all?

To activate the sim you have to have an internet in the car account. That’ll tell you how much data you’ve used when you log in. If the previous owner had registered it I doubt you’ll be able to register it in your name.iknowgungfu wrote: ↑Sun Feb 07, 2021 4:50 pm Just picked up a used one and that came with a 100GB SIM (previous owner/emplyee had the car but had not activated the car internet/data).

Hey
So I just got the dreaded email (others may think not so dreaded). I’m going to order the 3 internet with legs sim from Amazon. Is it truly plug and play? Your thoughts please.

Worked for me first time. Much easier than the original data SIM.
Once you have registered the SIM you can see usage on the Vodafone webpage
