I use anywhere from 50 - 220GB/month. I have a Verizon unlimited data plan. I don't manage my data usage, because I don't have to! :p

WOW. That's a lot of data usage. Almost everywhere I go there is WiFi not to mention I also have Xfinity WiFi on my iPhone so I would never ever come close to using that much data.

Most of that is from tethering. I have rather slow cable service at home, so I tether, especially if my wife is streaming something at the same time I want to. I probably use +/- 10GB on the phone. It varies from month to month.

As of today: 26.12GB on VZW unlimited plan

I average around 25GB/month. My office blocks Apple/Google Music (I am not exactly sure why) and I also stream HBOnow/YouTube regularly.

Wait a minute....you can stream HBO/YouTube, but not AppleMusic/Google Music. WOW....that's a little strange

Man I wish. Do you not get throttled after a certain amount to a slower speed?

Not on Verizon. They cannot throttle because of some agreement with the FCC over the band(s) they use for their LTE. There are probably others here who know more about it than I do. It is part of the same deal as Verizon not SIM locking their LTE phones.

Just last night I used around 15GB streaming the two Monday Night NFL games. I can even use my Chromecast to watch it on an LCD. I do not have TV, so my only access to it is via Verizon.

Thanks, that's awesome. You are very fortunate to have that kind of service.

I am averaging between 5-8 per month now. When I was working for VZW I was averaging around 20GB on my personal device plus 5GB on a work device.

With 14 more days to go before I recycle, I'm doing well this month with two devices...

300-400GB a month! Unlimited Sprint plan! Always moving, so I am not hammering a single tower all the time.
Truck driver, so use it ALOT! 64 podcasts a day, 10 of them video. Netflix and Sirius App streaming
