Back in September/October I wanted to see how much data I could use in one month. I ran across this thread today and figured I'd share mine. I hit 110GB in September and figured I needed to step my game up for October. This is all 100% data used by my phone itself, absolutely no tethering or hot spotting of any kind.

Dude, you are my new data hero! I hit 400GB in January but that was a miracle.

Holy cow, you guys put me to shame.

I no longer have the unlimited plan, so I try to keep below the 1GB limit my wife and I have. Even when I had unlimited, though, I only ever got, at most, 750 MB.

What app are you using for sharing internet? I use Pdanet, but it sometime stops transfer data when i'm streaming video, which makes me to reload the page.

33 GB.

I'm on my way to using more because I've used 2 GB already and my bulling cycle started yesterday. I have a lot of free time at work so I'm always using SiriusXM, Hulu Plus and Netflix. This won't last for much longer and I'll be back to my 5 GB or less per month. Until then, I'll be having fun.

Unless you were paying for the movies they were pirated.

sure, like with netflix or whatever, which can use up to 2.3gb an hour of data for a single stream. Netflix does allow more than 1 concurrent stream. I have used around 700gb a month before, and no illegal activities like pirating or whatever.

People like this are why we lost unlimited. Some people have to take advantage of something and ruin it for others.

Nice Melli. Pda Net is tethering isn't it? I'm sure I'd use more if I tethered but mainly mine is Google Music (the removed apps is Google Music.. I had to reinstall due to a bug).

Yeah most of mine is tethering seeing as I tether my whole household and still don't miss a beat on my own data. T-Mobile LTE is the shiz lol. Google music is using a lot of data also. Would delete but already paid for my unlimited access lol.

Something tells me that even if some people start calling 24/7 on the unlimited minutes plan, that Verizon still won't get rid of unlimited minutes

We lost unlimited because carriers saw us as walking piggie banks.. And everyone didn't fight it so.. Why not get more cash?
