May I know if I can get the prepaid plan, RMB6/month, then add on an appropriate data plan? cannot really find it online.

My usage for 4 days is expected to be about 500mb or above.

CHeers!
I have a hard time staying on top of the latest plans because they are constantly changing, and new plans are always being adding to the mix. A further complication is that 2g, 3g, and LTE all have different rates/rules.

Fortunately, it's easy to get info by calling Unicom, and their reps can move you to the plan of your choosing instantly.

BTW, I might be able to hook you up with an orphan SIM; PM sent.
