The 321 contract forbids "tethering" which I assumed was letting other devices have access to the internet through it.
Does that data only SIM card have the same restriction?
Could they tell if you were doing this, if so, how do they know?
look here

Mobile Broadband –it’s the Internet with legs.
http://www.three.co.uk/_standalone/Link_Document?content_aid=1214305748126thing is I dont think it mentions these unique 12/24 month one payment plans as far as I can see.
if you can understand that all you are better than me - no wonder these sims have fallen through the cracks
You will have to ask them?
though on page 15 of the pdf it says
"How can I use my data units?
• You can use your data units in the UK or in any of our
Go Roam destinations, as set out on page 10.
•
You can also use your data units to set up a
Personal Hotspot if you want to connect more than
one device to the Internet at once, when in the UK
or in a Go Roam in Europe destination.so I would assume applies to these sims also? you will have to ask them
The only "problem" I had with these sims was making an account so you can keep a tally of how much data you have left - You do that online but they have to send a text message with a tempoarary passcode to the phone number associated with the sim, but data sims dont have voice or text message capability.......it seems though that Windows 10 atleast has a one way messernger app that popped up the code. Also though the sim worked straight way kept on getting messages thru that app saying we are getting you ready etc and to restart your connection or some thing. I suspect all this nonsense was really to do with setting up online accounts for a phone
