been burning more data than ever? My usage hasn't changed but I hit like 5-6gb per week now. Almost doubled from before they lifted throttle even though I never got throttled. Are they measuring data different now?
Got a tip for us?

I noticed this too. I used approx. 3GB per month previously, max maybe 5-6GB on a vacation. Now I'm using at least 1GB per day. ha-ha. It's wild.
Meanwhile, I was testing T-Mobile to see if I wanted to switch and I wasn't using 1GB per week.
I posted about this in another thread, and I was told it was me using it. That may very well be, but it sure is odd that the month we get the unlimited LTE upped to 22GB I begin using 5x as much data.

Just means, keeping UDP for as long as I can. With programs, sites, updates etc getting more data hungry, no way you and I would make it on a capped plan.
I never get throttled, I live in a town of 400. I probably make up most of the data on my tower since my neighbors are like 70 lol
Just looked, wifi assist is on. That could be it. But I have full bars at home 45mbps internet
Either way phone never lets me down. 32 5s.

If you are on IOS 9, can you see what is eating all the extra data? This article goes over how to tell:

I'm at 280gb in 2 years!!! Pandora has 80gb!! Safari is 60gb!!! Amazing.

No, I'm using the same amount of my unlimited data plan as I did before they changed their policy.
