Unexplained large data use

Anonymous
Not applicable

Yesterday I had around 120 mb of data left.

 

I was setting my new iPhone up earlier and received a text message telling me that I had used 80 percent of my allowance. At that point I checked on My O2 app and I had 45 mb remaining, this was around 3 hours ago.

 

I have just received another text saying that I have used all of my allowance up.

 

I have my iPhone 6 Plus beside me, on wifi, plugged into my computer and I'm in the process of adding my apps, music etc on to it through iTunes.

 

I can remember a couple of years ago I had the same thing happen, and it was just after a new iOS release!

 

Has anyone else had an unexplainable large data use like I have?

I'm a little baffled.....you're looking to save £48 per year ?

 

I can save more than that just by prudent food shopping.

My main aim is to get a deal as close to one I can get from Three, if that's possible slight_smile

Get what you can, mind you they will probably deny all knowledge of the previous offer or say it was an error and can't be done...:smileytongue:
