(Not so) Premium connectivity

So i pay the (equivalent to $15 a ,month) fee for the so called premium connecitivity.

First time abroad, and i suddenly get "Daily data limit reached"

What i did was park at a free charger at the hotel we were staying at.

There were only one rule....Charge for free for 4 hours, but after talking to the guy at the reception it was more or like "Charge for 4 hours, and then you need to move your car if someone else wants to charge"

They had 2 spots so i used the sentry camera to see if someone was in the other spot (Logic being, as long as no one was using the other spot, i did not need to move the car)

I looked at the camera maybe 10 times over the course of the day, and suddenly i got that message.

So it seems that "Premium connectivity" does not mean i can use the sentry mode camera's like this.

I was still able to control charge limit and so on after this...(Had the car charging to 90% and then 1 hour before we had to leave i changed it to 100% to have the car go to 100% for departure).

Still quite puzzled why infrequent use abroad like that, was THAT limited.

This isn't really a traveling-abroad issue. In the manual, the daily sentry-mode Live View limit is documented:

This just feels very odd, i can get a dataplan with lots and lots of gigabytes of monthly data, for the same price, and this is just me, buying one subscription.

I would imagine Tesla would be able to get even more when they buy MANY subscriptions.

So i would conclude that the "Premium" label is more of a label to describe the price they want me to pay, rather than the actual service they deliver :)
