Data Packages - Doubtful data count

[Chomper Higgot]

I’ve just managed to get through 20GB of a Thailand based mobile provider data package in the space of less than four days.

 

And no I haven’t downloaded a rebuild of my devices.

Any streaming ?? YouTube, Netflix etc?... any video content at all?

 

 

if nothing like that, contact your provider and see what they come back with.

When I click on data usage in my phone settings it will show exactly where all my data has gone

True rips me off all the time as well.

As above, check the data usage setting in your phone, then let us know how you managed to get through 20GB.

Thanks for the suggestions, I checked my phone but the data usage was only available as an aggregate for months past. In that cont my browser was the highest use of data but not specific enough the determine how so.

 

I’ve reset the counters and reloaded a new package, use so far in 1 day 270Mb which seems correct.

 

I’ll monitor more closely in the coming weeks.

Unless you use your phone for everything you do on the internet, 270 Mb per day is a lot.

 

I have 587 Mb usage since 28 July, but then I use my phone for making calls with different messenger apps, Playstore and email, and occasionally for doing a google search when outside

 

Other usage I have a pc for

 

You can also set your data info that it resets every month a a certain date.

You are correct, I was using my phone instead of my Desk Top.

 

Thanks for your suggestion to auto reset once a month, it’s a really good idea.
