Default How much does it cost to download

Please Login to Remove!

Hi there, I have a data plan with orange that gives me 250Mb download per month, can somebody please put this into perspective. If I receive an email from this forum telling me somebody has replied to a thread I have contributed to, and I then go to the forum to either reply or check to see if somebody else has contributed, what will that cost me in terms of download usage. If I listen to internet radio will this cost me? How much will it cost me to check on a bid I have going on eBay. I realise that the answer cannot be precise, but I have no idea at the moment.
Thanks.

Hi

Without going into individual costs etc let's put it this way. I email, pin, BB message every day plus browse the internet etc sometimes for hours each day ( at work lol) I also have about 7 applications and my usage per month is just below 100mb.

You can check your usage on your Orange online account or perhaps there is a number you can call.

I don't use that so cannot say I'm afraid. Can't see it being a huge amount though.

If you are not running the 4.5 OS you could download the free Mini Moni (a data counter) and monitor use.

Streaming music is going to take up quite a bit of data. How much data is going to be determined by how long your streaming the music.
