Check your usage
Your allowance is how many minutes, texts and data you can use within a certain period of time and your usage is how much you’ve used of that allowance. Your allowance is refreshed each month on your bill date. You can check when your bill date is by downloading our Tesco Mobile app or by logging in to My Account.
Check your pay monthly usage
The easiest way to keep track of your allowance is by downloading the Tesco Mobile app on Android or iPhone. You can also check your allowance online through My Account, or by calling 4488.
You can:
- Check your usage and get a full usage summary
- Change your monthly data bundle
- Buy a one-off data bundle or increase your monthly data allowance
- Change your safety buffer
Adding a safety buffer
A safety buffer allows you to set the amount you’re happy to spend above your monthly tariff on things not included in your monthly allowance. By adding a safety buffer, you also won’t need to worry about going over your data allowance.
You can find out how to add or change your safety buffer with our guide
