Three forms of “unlimited”
Daily high-speedA fixed amount resets every day, followed by reduced speed.
Fair-use thresholdUsage remains available but heavy traffic can be managed or throttled.
Large fixed bundle50–120 GB may be clearer and faster than an unlimited label for a short trip.
Questions before payment
- How many GB run at full speed each day?
- What is the exact speed after the limit?
- When and in which time zone does the allowance reset?
- Is hotspot allowed and does it have a separate cap?
- Are the UK, Switzerland and every Balkan stop included?
When unlimited is worth it
It suits frequent video, cloud work, social uploads or several connected devices. A fixed 5–10 GB plan is usually cheaper for maps, messaging and bookings. Compare usable high-speed data over the entire trip rather than multiplying an “unlimited” headline.
Remote-work rule: a throttled connection can still send messages but fail a video call. Keep accommodation Wi‑Fi or another connection for critical meetings.
