I average 2gb because I restrict myself since the rates I get are outreageous here in the US... I use wifi whenever I can to limit mobile usage (which is of course not included in the 2gb figure).

Meanwhile, checked just out of curiosity, I used 640 GB in past 30 days. That's just my PC. Then there is wife's laptop and cell & kids laptops & cells. I suspect my household "eats" every month 1 TB of data. Not that we care anyway.

I am curious how you manage this? Are you torrenting 4k movies continuously?

Yup, something like that.

I was talking about mobile data... my PC uses cable and the limit per month is 1-TB before I get charged extra...

I typically use less than 300MB for the same reason. It's too pricey for my taste, so I just use only a little bit when necessary. Honestly, waiting for wifi isn't that bad and I can download most of my work in advance.
