Using piggybank balance to hotspot abroad

[Melanie1505]

Hello! I am hoping to work abroad (in Germany) later this week. I would like to do this by rolling some of my data from my piggybank onto my SIM and then using my phone as a hotspot for my laptop. I have a few questions:

1) Is there a limit to how much data I can roll over?

2) Can I use this rolled over data as a hotspot without any limitations/extra charges?

3) Will I encounter any issues using my phone as a hotspot abroad?

4) Will I be charged any more then the usual £2/day charge for roaming abroad for using my rolled over data as a hotspot?

Apologies for so many questions but thank you very much in advance - I'm really worried about something not working/being charged extra so would appreciate some reassurance!
