Hotspot Service worth Renewing?!

I see that my Hotspot service has already eaten up some bandwidth out of 3GB allowed in the trial.

Once the service trial expires will the iDrive connectivity also expire? I mean would we still be able to remote start/lock/unlock the car using the App? If so, how long will that service last?

Is it worth renewing the car's hotspot wifi service or instead to have tethering over your existing phone for the passengers?

If the remote controlling is possible even after the WiFi Hotspot subscription is over, does that mean the car uses two different SIM cards (connections)? One for the remote services and one for the Hotspot WiFi?

I am just getting used to the trials and connectivity functions.
