DATA ZAPPING By Ntwrks These Days? by Nbote(m): 9:51am On Dec 22, 2016
Is it jus me or has anyone noticed how fast data runs out these days? Ever since the failed data price increase, I've noticed d volume of data I consume have gone up compared to before even though it's still d same basic apps and nothing new and extra. I'm not going to mention names as I jus want to know if anyone else has noticed same with their networks and data

You must look for what's eating up your data. The same 1k for 1.5GB data is what I've been using since Dec 1 and I still have 160mb left now. I use it everyday for browsing, chatting and lil bit Facebook and Twitter. No downloads except for few mp3 songs.And the consumption tallies very well with the data counter in my phone.

That double data bla bla bla is also charged double. But u see their normal 1k for 1.5gb and 2k for 3.5gb, those ones are charged normally.

Windows 10 is demonic.
You must work carefully to find what's zapping your data, or else you go suffer.
There are some stuff you need to disable to stop the guzzling of data.

Airtel's Android plan stopped zapping like 2 months ago.
Using the 2k5 for 5gb, and it has not zapped.

PC Windows 7, and my phone too.

My brother uses Windows 10, and I'm aware of how his data got burnt everytime till he cured it.

Google your problem, and look around the settings too.
Disable those Cortana, live tiles etc.

set your internet connection to metered in the network settings of your pc.. That way it'll regulate house it zaps data, and no more os background updates unless you manually download it.

Funny thing is I'm not doing anything different than I was doing before but yet d data is draining up faster than ever. I think it's peculiar to my etisalat and mtn so far.
