Data

[Anonymous]

I have the same apps that I’ve always had when I only had 500mb I now have 3gb and this last about 2 weeks, My boy watched a 6min video of brum (NON HD) and this took my last 322mb of data now I have to wait till 12th of next month for it to renew, I did t have this problem when I had my phone New now it’s due to run out it seems like it’s using more.

Watching videos will consume data very quickly and everything is geared around data use these days.
I used to get by on 100mb a month years ago but that lasts about an hour these days.

If you are using your mobile data to use YouTube then that will eat your data very quickly as it is a streaming service & Facebook is another huge data hog. Either buy a bolt on to tide you over or upgrade to a better tariff if this keeps happening

That’s what will happen if you stream a video using data. Better off watching those types of service on WiFi

A speed test uses more. Streaming will just eat your data, not just on O2 but on any network.
