I have unlimited cellular data on my phone but not if I use it as a hotspot. - eviltoast

What is the difference between cellular data being used on my phone and cellular data being used on my notebook? Data is data.

    They had this restriction in the UK where the networks would prevent hotspots from actually working. You had to buy a special additional package.

    Restriction has now vanished and there are no such limits on usage. Not sure if the Regulator intervened but it was most certainly a cash grab.

    These days they still manage to rip us off by annual contract increases of RPI+3.9%. That applies even during a 2 year contract.
