Mobile add-ons and auto-allowance


Article summary

Purchase an additional mobile data

We do not offer an additional mobile data package you can purchase.

If you are running out of mobile data or have already run out, you need to change your mobile plan with a bigger data.


Roaming Pack

Roaming data and/or voice services that can be purchased in addition to a recurring plan.

Roaming packs are valid for 12 months only from the date of purchase, regardless of when they are activated, and Roaming packs are activated following the first use of any Cellular Mobile Service included with the Roaming packs.

Roaming packs are non-refundable & non-transferable once purchased.


Roaming Data Cap

Allows you to have a threshold to restrict to zero or an NZ dollar amount so that you can consume 'casual' Roaming Data up to the provisioned Roaming Data Cap threshold. For example, only purchased data such as Auto-Allowance or Add-On plan can be consumed after the threshold has been reached. Available for Roaming Data only. Voice, Text, and other services will be active for the duration of the billing cycle.

The default setting for the Maximum Roaming Data Limit is $5.00 NZD.


Rollover Data

Rollover Data means the NZ data component of a plan can be carried forward to the following month. Maximum duration of the NZ data is 365 days. Any balances that remain and are older than 365 days will automatically be relinquished.

Usage priority is as follows : Recurring plan allowance > Purchased plan if any > Rollover (will use the oldest rollover data first)

All rollover data will be immediately relinquished if a provisioning request is submitted for change of plan, termination, or change of ownership, where Rollover is not available. For example, Rollover Data is not available on Big data or Endless data plans.


Smart Data Cap

Restricts you from being able to consume any ‘casual’ NZ Data. Only purchased data, such as recurring plan data, Auto-Allowance or Add-On plans can be consumed. When completing a provisioning request for change of plan, termination or change of ownership where Smart Data Cap is available to a plan where Smart Data Cap is not available, then the existing capability will be immediately removed.

The default setting for Megatel mobile users is Smart Data Cap enabled.
