The Fortnite update is over 15GB but I only get 5GB a month. My parents don't have a lot of money for internet but I can't play Fortnite because of the big update. Please help anyone for answers ? 

How would you like us to help? Because right now my answer to "please help anyone for answers" is either a) ask them to increase your internet plan b) download it on another network or c) don't play Fork Knife.

Why not use the data on your smartphone?

If they can't afford to have internet that supports more than 5GB/M, why would you think they have the money for an unlimited data plan, or one that has >= 15GB?

Then you're probably SOL, ask friends or family to use their internet

Is your computer a laptop? I'd potentially suggest going to your local Starbucks. Go relatively early in the day and you should be okay. I wouldn't try downloading any portion of the update over your phone though, as you will still need data to play the game and do other things.

As you said above the OP had not put up enough information NOT to rule that out. Also, some vendors in the US do allow unlimited data downloads if you are in a county where they are predominant. I have walked into an AT & T store (the service provider I was using at the time) and downloaded local google maps, windows updates and downloadable digital content when crossing the US a few years ago!

Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves (Abraham Lincoln,1808-1865; 16th US president).
