Data Usage

Anonymous
Not applicable

With the ever connected world we live in these days, I'm wondering how much people use.

As you may or may not know I gave up home broadband in November and I've just had my first full month data usage (I swapped direct debit dates after I joined so that messed it up)

 

When I took out my unlimited data contract, they said unlimited was just that I could stick it any device I wanted & hotspot as much as i wanted (not tried either yet)

 

Here's the result.

So is 45gb a lot compared to you, compared to you gals with home broadband... or am I a data minnow? 

I'm wondering if fair usage is an outdated term.. or have you fallen foul?

 

I'll be reporting back monthly to see what I'm like over the remainder of the contract!

Would love your input!

I have a 3Gb allowance and normally use upwards to 2Gb.
Last month (4 Dec-3 Jan) was less as I was off work for Christmas so not travelling around as much.
While on WiFi my usage is 30Gb+ a month (lowest was 23.3Gb but max was 71Gb!!) so your usage is about right if you have switched off a BB connection.

Although I'm referring to our Home Broadband here, we stream most of our TV these days, this is just 19 days worth, often can be over a TB a month. Mobile wise, no streaming and around 1GB a month.

Also if you want to use free WiFi and not worry being tracked you could use a vpn then they can't track you

I don't really use hardly any of my allowance due to the fact I don't stream music or video when I am out and about.  I also use free wifi at work.

Thanks

@welshsteve76I'm pretty much the same, don't stream on cellular so avoiding any surprises of data running out and big charges.

 

Happened once by accident and within an hour i'd "lost" £40 cry (not O2)
