How much data did I use?

[Anonymous]

I'm trying to decide if i can save money by choosing a lower data limit because I am on an unlimited data tariff. But to do that I would like to know how much data I have actually used  over the past few months. How do I find out ?

You check your usage in "My O2"

How did You get unlimited data allowance ?

It must be an old legacy tariff such as mine below. I would check carefully just how much data you use and make sure that any new tariff would adequately cover your future use.

As MI5 says, you can check back over the previous 12 months through My O2.

If I were you, I'd think very carefully about giving up your unlimited data tariff. It most likely will be something that O2 never offers again, and whatever you think you might be saving on a lower limit tariff now could turn out to be a false economy somewhere down the road.

I agree with the others, new phones and more online content being used now.

You cannot go back to unlimited once you leave it.

Yes, it is an old tariff. Thanks for the advice about not losing the unlimited data.

However I still would like to find out how much I am actually using.

I might be being stupid but I can't find out where to look in My O2. I can see how much I have used in this current month, but when I look at previous bills all I can see is how much I've been charged for voice calls and texts. Can someone give me exact instructions please?

Cheers

View previous bill and then download as pdf and everything is itemised.

or click on previous bills then choose the month you want to see then click on my allowance at the left hand side.

Doesn't show it in My Allowances, (possibly because it's unlimited?)

But I found it in the pdf. Thanks all.
