Yes, any data usage comes from your allowance, if you had used your home wi-fi (or any other wi-fi) it would have been unaffected, so that's better for large downloads.

 

You can check this in MyO2 (at the top of this page) or using the MyO2 app which you can get here:

Hi and welcome to the 02 Community Forum.

Heed Perksie's advice.

Also note when your iPhone goes to sleep mode it will auto switch from wifi to 3G so either keep it awake or turn off 3G and mobile data when your on any available wifi connection.

If you perform a search you will also find some other great threads giving advice in how to save your tariff data.
