Why am I getting charged for data when im not on my phone???

[Anonymous]

Is there any reason why I get extra data charges even when im not on my phone???

Some PAYG tariffs charge a £1 Web daily charge which is triggered by the use of any data at all.
To prevent this data should be turned off on the phone completely.

Just because you are not actively using your phone does not mean it is not doing something.
Most phones are searching for network connections or updating information in the background.
Unless you actively turn off sync or background refresh (or similar) or turn off data altogether this is likely to continue.

Sounds like daily Web kicking in. Have you thought of changing tariff to an inclusive data one. Probably work out cheaper unless you switch off mobile/cellular data altogether.
