How much you made data usage a month for LTE/4G networking?
 
my iPhone 5 with 4G, I have 4GB data each month, and I usually ran it out by the end of the month, but now I hardly use it, because I have wifi at home, plus I didn't get the time to go geocaching, which uses a handful of data when I find a lot of geocaches.
 
I average about 300-500mb a month for the website, MMS and email. I use wifi at home, and use it to download app updates and other downloads. Saves a lot of Verizon bandwidth.
 
1.5GB to 3.50GB / each month in using VRS and FaceTime, MMS, WEB and email.
 
12gb/month since I'm constantly on the move, don't have time to log into every WiFi router.

Whoa, that's a lot, and does it cost you a lot?

Mine with 4gb costs me $112 a month
 
When I'm away from home for awhile, I tether a lot and use 5+GB HSPA easily in 1-2 weeks.
Last time I moved, I tethered about 10gb HSPA in one month before I got home internet.

Now I have Nexus 4, I can switch between toggle LTE or HSPA. Usually on average I use around 1-2GBs per regular month with no trip.

I am grandfathered on AT&T plan, I pay $10/month for unlimited data.
 
I just went online to pay my monthly cell phone bill and saw that it was only about $17, instead of the expected $52 or so. That is because I got an $35 credit for my "MBA Surety Settlement" What is MBA Surety Settlement?

It for lawsuit related to AT&T services for customers from 2004-2010. AT&T Clients sued for overpriced charges for some services. So, you get some money back for what you paid if you used them or had on your plan.

Yup, last phone I ever got on contract was some old nokia T9 phone from 6-7 many years ago. Now I buy unlocked mobiles, usually from other country.
 
When I am vacationing, I use tether with my SG3, and still carries unlimited plan before Verizon cuts it off. I don't use the bandwidth much, only watch streaming and videos at home. I use Redbox to rent movies on the go.

Around the same for mine, but if I asked for 8GB, that is $60 dollars extra apart of $30 for 4GB data extra.

If you want to get to specific costs, I use Verizon share everything plan. $40 (unlimited phone/texting) smartphone, $20 iPad connection, $110 12gb data, $10 tax/fees comes to $180/month. Verizon is the only carrier that reaches places I need connection to, so yes It's within my budget, but like I said, I am not dependent on WiFi because of its limited range.

:shock: That's a lot!

Mine is $60 a month for unlimited texting and $550 credit in phone calls. $17 a month for repayments for the iPhone 5 itself. $5 for the Voice2text for voicemail. $30 for 4GB data.
 
$55 per month for 2 GB and unlimited messaging from Verizon.

I'm considering to add hotspot (tethering) option with 2 GB extra to make 4 GB in total, for $20 extra.

I have 616 MB out of 2 GB now so cycle will end on July 21. Sometime, I hit over 1 GB.
 
$50 a month for my grandfathered AT&T TAP plan.
