Do you keep track of the GB usage in your internet connection?

Well,I am in a limited broadband plan which allows me 1.5GB per month for a fixed amount of bill.If my usage exceeds the limit,I have to pay extra for every kb used.Recently,I liked to track the usage of particular sites in a day.For my surprise,the ptc sites are consuming a lot(I click in just two sites).Do you check your usage like this or you have an unlimited plan?

Yes!I am thinking of changing my plan to enjoy the unlimited experience.No worry about using any sites and I can watch some interesting videos and even full cinemas when I feel bored with the stereotype works.But I can't think about it in the near future.But one day,I will also be joining you people.

Nope, I have unlimited broadband and never track how much I am using my connection sometime fast and slow. First time I use per kilo but not anymore because it's too expensive and lag. You'll not satisfied if you must count every time you opening site, then the price is still count even though you have unstable data packet transfer.

With an unlimited plan,you remain in peace like that.But as a limited plan member,I have to be concerned about it.Yes,if we are keen on the usage,we can't enjoy some sites.In that circumstances,I control myself without using that site or use it and stay away from the connection for some days to compensate.

There are free hours at certain times which suit my timings and the limit that I have is enough for my use. So far I have not paid more than the package that I have opted for. Also it depends on how efficient to search for info on the net. If one goes on at it ceaselessly obviously it will add upto consuming more bytes. We must remember that even upload is counted.

Sure,we have to pay for everything including uploading and downloading and it costs much if we see more videos or play online 3d games.And if we have the habit of downloading a lot of software,it is advisable to use the free hours,as you said.Until two months back,I didn't pay anything over the limit.Only after a virusd attack,I had to install all the software again and the updates boosted the Gb usage.
