Ok so, I recently converted (back) to the iPhone from BlackBerry .. and first let me say, it feels good to be back. I don't know what I was thinking, but I'm like the prodigal son returning back to the glory, haha.
Anyways, with the new AT&T data plans and everything, I have been trying to keep an eye on my data usage. Right now I'm on the DataPro package which is 2gb of data a month ... I wanted to start with that to be on the safe side and track my data before seeing if I could go down to the 200mb a month plan.
I barely started using the iPhone 3GS yesterday, got it set up and everything and today I look at the usage on there and it says 7.0mb sent, 134mb received ... Seriously?? I've used 141mb of data in ONE day? Does AT&T charge on the sent AND received? Or just the sent? The sent usage seems to be more of the amount of data per day I'm used to using - and I wasn't even on my iPhone hardcore yesterday.
So what's the deal? Which gets charged? Does anyone know?
And by the way, I tried going on the AT&T site to see how much they have me down as used for data and it said since I recently changed data plans my usage wouldn't be available until the next billing cycle - July 12.
