Hey guys posted this somewhere else on this site too but didnt know if i posted it in the wrong place so going to put it on here too
Im on an orange pay as you go plan and have bis, but have a 50mb cap per month. How much usage is this??? I use facebook a few times a day, have my emails pushed to me which i get around 5-10 a day and will soon be using bbm and i dont use the browser too often. Any ideas guys??? Many thanks
50mb isn't much. With about 50 emails/day, lots of YM, a few bbm and some browsing I use at least 200 mb/mth. My average is between 500mb-1Gb. Is there an option to increase ur cap? Maybe u can try your current cap for a couple of months and see if it's enough.

Surely you must be using it for something else if you mean you use 4.5gb surely???
Honestly, no. I get tons of email from work, I use BBM a lot, Yahoo IM and
a few other data intensive apps. I rarely use the browser as I always have
my laptop.
i use about 35 - 40mb a month with about 15 emails a day and facebook about 3 times a day. i use the browser about twice a week but no more than that and i might download an odd app now and again and it all goes over the carrier but apart from that i dont use it that much.
so yer, its easy to keep it under 50mb if your just facebooking and emailing
I used under 50 a month. Usually right around the 40 range. I check the weather and use the facebook website a couple times a day. Sometimes I go on Youtube and such. I don't really see myself as a heavy user and get less than a dozen actual emails a day. So I don't really use too much because I don't stream or anything. Though, I do use WiFi quite a bit, so if I were to always use EDGE it would probably go over 50mb a month.
For assurance purposes, how much could an unlimited plan really cost you over the 50mb plan? Or atleast the next higher up?
Im on orange pay as you go in the uk. Dont really wanna go down the contract route to be honest. Hmmmm i would only be sending text via bbm not pics or videos. Can you answer me a question. Is it right for facebook to update your events automatically even tho you have closed the app on the blackberry???? Cos i turned my phone on this evening and had a event invite or something like it pop up on the screen imideatly.
I use my Bold what I consider to be a lot, and the most I've used in a month (with a 500MB/month plan because Rogers offers a 4MB as the next cheapest option) was about 100MB. And I use BBM a lot, Google Maps, the browser, and have two personal email accounts and a work email account on my BB (all via BIS).
