Data usage of my cellular plan for my i phone 5

I would like to know how i can setup my i phone 5 to display the data usage of my cellular plan.

There are two methods that I know of. 1) Put a reminder on your calendar to repeat each month on the day that your monthly cellular plan ends and then go to Settings > Cellular and scroll to the bottom and "Reset Statistics." If you do that, Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Usage > Current Period will show your data usage in close alignment to your cellular plan. 2) Download an app from your cellular provider if they offer one.

How to reverse the end date on Oracle Standard Benefits plan for a employee

Hi,
We tried to end date a medical benefit plan for an employee but did it wrong. It should show end dated 31-JAN-2010 and then we wanted to add a new plan starting from '01-FEB-2010'. But we wrongly end-dated as on 31-DEC-2010.
Can anyone help me to identifiy how to remove the wrong end date from the benefit plan for the employee..
Regards

If you are using life events, just backout the life event and the end-date will go away. then create a fresh life event and make necessary changes.

How do I add my ipad2 to my cellular plan for vacation month only?

When attempting to use the "Add a Device" function on my account management page it asks for a Device ID but my ipad only offers me a Serial number or UDID identifier and not a device ID so when I attempt step 2 is says that I am entering the wrong number. How do I find the right number?
I have a Verizon share everything account with two iphone 4's on it. I have an ipad 2 (which I did not get from Verizon) but would like to add it on to my account so that I will have service on it for my vacation next month. Can anyone help?

Is there any insurance plan for this expensive phone?

security needs to to be improved!

Check with your credit card company and/or agreement.
Some of the better Gold and Platinum Cards double
the manufacturers warranty and also cover lost or
stolen purchases. Obviuously there are limits, I
haven't seen a card company that covers damage
caused by the user.
Cheers,
Flack
AMEX gold/platinum cards cover damage by the user. They paid for my nano when apple claimed a cracked LCD was my fault.

What is the data usage for ipad mini on stand by when connected to WIFI?

We connected 34 ipad mini's for yacht WIFI network that has internet access. Now data usage is 1GB/h higher for the all connections than before.
None of the ipad's are used for internet. My question is what is the data usage when ipad is is standby usage and how I can stop is downloading/uploading.
This slows down internet for rest of the users in same network.
Please help.

Are there known data usage problems with iPhone 4S?

I just got my first iPhone. I barely know how to use the thing and pretty much only use it for checking my work email. I blew through 7 GB of data in 20 days. From everyone I've talked to there is no way I have done this based on my limited usage. So something is running in the background that I can't control. I've turned off the cellular setting and told it to only use wifi, and when I'm at home it appears to be using my wifi. I read some other comments here saying it could be a problem with the iOS, but it didn't seem like a definite answer. Any other ideas?

Last month I checked the data usage on my iPhone 4S three days after the start of a new billing cycle. To my shock I discovered that I had been charged with about 193 MB of usage. That was very odd because 193 MB is well above what my total data usage is each month. Immediately contacted AT&T Customer Service--twice. Each time they could not provide an explanation as to why the data usage was charged to my phone. All they could tell me was that all of the 193 MB were charged on the very day the new billing cycle started. They did try to sell me a larger data plan.
I thought maybe this was just an odd thing that couldn’t be explained. Kept a close eye on my data usage for the reminder of the billing cycle and didn’t have another large data charge. I still stayed well under the 300 MB plan limit even with the unexpected 193 MB of usage on day one.
Then my wife checks her iPhone 4S data usage on day one of this month's billing cycle at about 9 AM. She finds that she has been charged with 30 MB of data usage when she hasn't even used her phone. Again, 9 AM; day one of new billing cycle; 30 MB of usage; no active applications running. How can this be? She contacted AT&T Customer Service and once again they were no help. She made two phone calls and also spoke with one CS Manager, but no one could explain why she has been charged for the 30 MB. Anyone else having this problem? Please help us resolve this if you know what to do? Extremely frustrating to be charged for data we know we are not using. Getting no help from AT&T Customer No-Service.

Mysterious Data Usage

Hello,
My wife owns an HTC Thunderbolt. We are experiencing mysterious data usage.
The data log shows data usage during hours and at times when the phone is not being used. We have tried closing all apps and resetting the phone.
Still, these nickel and dime data used entries are adding up fast and bring us to the brink of our our plan which we have already extended.
We do not stream video, we do not listen to Pandora.... The phone is used strictly for texts, emails, and phone calls.
Any advice? Thank you for your help.

Same here - very similar.Times are close but not like yours.
I've deleted the email accounts and re-added them to see if there was a looping email send issue that I've read about.
Funny though, when I review the data use on the phone, "photo" is the app indicating using the most data. So I've turned off and uninstalled everything I can think is tied to that.

Does using Wi-Fi count towards my data usage?

If I am at work or at home and can connect to my wireless internet will this count as data usage on my verizon plan. I only got the 105mb plan because I really only "need" access to email. It would be nice to access the internet if I can do it without running the chance of incurring overages.
If so, how do I make sure I am not using the phones data plan?
Sorry if this is covered elsewhere. This is my first smartphone and I am not sure what I have gotten myself into. Thanks.
Jodi

Make sure that not only the Wi-Fi is on, but that it's connected. turning on WiFi doesn't automatically connect it unless you've connected to that same WiFi before. You'll know if you're connected by checking the icon next to the signal strength indicator. If it says 3G then you're using your data allowance.
Also, if you're on a family plan and this is your first phone you can take advantage of the smartphones talk free promotion. They give you a $10 credit if you get the unlimited plan so it only ends up costing you $5 more than the 150MB plan, and lasts for the term of the contract.

Data usage spikes

I have an iMac and an Airbook, both using Time Capsule for WiFi connection to a Verizon 551L via a CradlePoint bridge. Looking at my normal data usage on my shared plan, my computers and three iPhone 4 (3G) cell phones typically use 250MB/day with normal browsing, e-mail, etc. I have automatic downloading of updates turned off on all of my devices and I set them to power down at night and sleep during the day if I don't use them for 30-minutes. When I download iTunes albums, add an app, or update software, my usage will spike to 1-2GB, but I usually stay within my 16GB data plan. When I updated both computers to Mavericks in November, I really paid for that one, using nearly 30GB that month but hey, that was my fault. But January has been unusual. Eight days into the current billing period, I had used 5GB of my plan and on day 9, I had a 2.3GB spike at 4AM (My hardware and I were asleep). Just after noon on the same day, (while I was at work and not using my hardware) I received two data alerts on my company computer; one at 12:10PM (75%) and one at 1:23PM (90%). I live in a rural area where my nearest neighbor is out of range of my WiFi network and even if they could get through my firewall, access settings, and password restrictions, the data rate required to create those two alerts would have been (at a minimum) 2.4GB/73m or 6mbps. That's uninterrupted streaming for 73-minutes! Sorry, that's out-of-family performance, even for 4G LTE. I'm almost certain that this is a problem with Verizon's usage monitoring and not representative of my actual usage. I see a lot of posts about this same issue, so there must be something going on. I understand Verizon not being too anxious to resolve it because it's very profitable.

Good day
I heard to learn this the hard way when I got my Z10 & Q10 has the newer OS does not do data compression!
Do you have any apps running in the background? refreshing?
I got app to monitor my usage it was only was $0.99 I got Instagram sideloaded and that was my main source of data being used!
This is the app I'm using

IPhone 5 unexpected data usage-AT&T

My data usage is unexpected very high for the past couple of months. I increased my data plan from 200mb to 300mb because my data usage was unexpectedly increasing. I'm 5 days into my billing cycle and i'm already 20% into my data plan. The only things I've done are read news articles online, pulled emails, and used iMessage. No online music or videos. I also made sure my background apps were closed out, and I even rebooted. Has anyone experienced the same issue? How did you resolve this issue?

Have you used Siri a lot or any navigation apps?

Sudden increase of data usage with my jetpack.

This is crazy! For the first few months using my jetpack, my usage was consistent with my usage when I was with Sprint. I monitor my usage on a regular basis. So you can image my surprise when I received two text messages in the middle of the night, 15 minutes apart telling me I was at 75% and the 90% of my 14 gig limit, just 17 days into my billing cycle. We had used just over 4 gig to this point, an average month. I contacted Verizon immediately. I was told that Verizon was having technical difficulties but she still put me through to a tech support person. The Tech gave me a song and dance about my data usage that did not match up with my data usage that was being reported on My Verizon, so I pushed the issue and called back. The customer service rep started an investigation on my behalf. When she called me several days later, I was informed that the usage was legit and it was my fault because I had left my jetpack on even when we were not using the internet and there must have been updates occurring. I was also told that nothing could be done until my next bill was issued. We run Linux and do not run ANY automatic updates. After turning off my jetpack for several days, my daughter turned it on for less than 30 minutes to check her email and blogs for her college class. It used in excess of .5 gig during this time. I will be taking my jetpack into the closest Verizon store to get checked out. If this is not resolved to my satisfaction, I will be eating the early cancelation charge and dropping Verizon. I would rather pay a little more through an internet satellite provider than be duped by a company unwilling to fix an obvious problem.

I can see by the posts on this site there are no solutions to an obvious problem with the Verizon Jetpack. My data usage says I have used over 15GBs! in a few hour period and I was only on the internet for about and hour and just the usual checking my email, bank statement, Facebook. My jetpack worked fine up until a two and a half months ago I have contacted Verizon a month ago about excessive data usage reporting. So far this month it says I have over 15G used! No way could it be. My browsing hasn't changed. My computer hasn't changed. I have not downloaded any music or movies for months and I shut off the automatic run on videos on Facebook. I've lived in the same house for 35 years. I shut my jetpack off when I'm done .. If I turn on the Jetpack. and check email and do some browsing,,.within half a day to a day I get a notice that says I've used almost 2 more GB of data!! This is insane. I haven't watched anything on Netflix since last April or May and even then I didn't have any overages. This is a new problem. I took my Jetpack in to our local Verizon Store and all he could do was confirm the data usage. The lady from online support who chatted with me last month said she would back charge to the cheaper plan for a month and then drop it the next month, but now my account shows I'm on a 14 GB plan (use to be 10 then she put it at 12 supposedly for one month..so don't know how in the heck it's now at 14) and it is saying I'm over my data usage. Right now I'm using my phone hotspot. I do not have overages being reported when I use this connection. I also have used my daughters hotspot and NO problem. Face it , to whatever Verizon Tech may be reading this... The problem is there's a bug with the Jetpack 4g or a problem with it's data reporting. I don't believe a large corporation would try to dishonestly upcharge data. I used the old Jetpack in 2011 and 2012 and NEVER had an overage problem. I updated to this new one last November and didn't have a problem until about 2 months ago. I'm an older senior and this is a big problem on a fixed income. My internet usage is about the same as it's been for the past decade. That's why I called Verizon about this problem. I thought maybe the account had been hacked somehow and someone was piggy backing on my device but with the postings on this site and others I see it's a Verizon Jetpack problem! NO ONE wants to Help. The replies I get from Verizon is " Well, this is what the data report says, so you must be using it somehow, with updates or background programs etc. " When NOTHING has changed on my end and it doesn't happen on other WiFi equipment it's obvious this is a Verizon Jetpack problem.. I am just not going to use my Jetpack anymore and believe when I say it will NOT be recommended to anyone we know, not that that will make a dent in anyones life at Verizon, and I use to think it was really a great tool for traveling etc. My husband and I do have the contract with Verizon and will run it out but this has been a really bad experience. BTW..I only hook this up to our computer at home or when we use the tablet up at our cabin,.so only one device at a time and no big downloads.

NRL digital pass data usage

Has there been changes to the data usage for the NRL pass? I watched the Cowboys-Storm game last night and the usage didn't come up as unmetered, instead it charged me. Every other game so far this year has been unmetered usage, what's going on? I'm using the black 4G sierra wireless 8gb plan device. Do I get charged download all of a sudden or does it take a day os so to show up as unmetered on my online bill? Thanks

Hi ajdolman,
I found the following in the FAQs
Do I pay for the data?
Standard data charges apply when downloading or using the app/NRL.com Match Centre. Video data usage is currently unmetered only for certain Telstra customers in respect of supported devices.
Video data usage is only unmetered for the following Telstra services:

Apologies for any confusion

Is WiFi free? Yes; how do you set it up to maximize usage to reduce data usage on own phone, no; what charges are incurred when using Wi-Fi?

On operating system for my phone not listed on operating system drop down, I am entering it here: Version 4.3.3(8J2). I am a re-subscriber to AT&T's iphone service, and hope this time around the experience will be more positive. I believe me not educating myself more on the features was the reason behind this aspect. On the subject of Wi-Fi; I was told, heard that the Wi-Fi which is available throughout the DFW, TX area is something I should take advantage of to reduce my data usage. I have an iphone 3GS 8GB phone which was purchased this week. Any advice would be appreciated, concerning the Wi-Fi network settings and any other new user details I may use would be appreciated. Thank you, Tq1

Does tethering to an iMac affect data usage compared to a standalone iPhone?

Does tethering to an iMac affect data usage compared to a standalone iPhone?

My BB data usage is not too bad, now my Android phone, THAT is where I am getting killed! However I can say this, my Z10 is NOT as efficient as my 9930 was at data, NOTHING compares to legacy BBs at data usage, but the Z10 is in line and/or better than your typical Android device. At least in my experience. Of course I have never used the iphone as a daily driver, or for anything but helping others figure out their phone.
