How much data do you use a month?

dylandylandylan

And is it enough for your needs?

I currently use (by myself, I live in a flat with 4 other students including my girlfriend) around 500-600GB a month, we have a TB cap. I think it's enough for my needs, I went from 30GB @ $79 a month to this, and it's amazing.

It varies. We don't have a data cap but there is a fair usage policy limit of 300GB.

Yeah ours is unlimited, but I have a friend at my ISP who informs me that their fair use is 1TB on my plan, so I try to stick under that ;)

Well our ISP is new and does plan to make the data cap unlimited once they have the infrastructure up and running. It's just a temporary data cap for now.

I wish I had unlimited.... We only have 120GB a month and it is EASY to go over

Mine is unlimited. Though, all slow ISP in my country always gives unlimited data cap :(. If you want fast, data cap always there to wait for your limits.

I'm not even sure how to check.

But with Verizon Fios there's "virtually" no cap. I know I use a lot of data though.

I don't really want to know, it's probably up to TB's a month. I have no data-cap and i got a pretty beast connection so it's usually streaming netflix x2, 3 computers and a few phones. (Not that the phones really matters) ^^

I know that last month my router said i had somewhat close to 3TB, but it was a fresh install thing so i had to re-download all my games++^^

I go online a lot so I'm guessing I'm somewhere above 100GB (with unlimited broadband). Someone like me would not be able to cope with SIM cards since they are very slow and only have 500MB-1GB of online data usage.

On a heavy month around 300GB, on average about 150GB.
