Check digi OCS (online customer service). You can see how much data usage there.

the 1st wise thing i did was , called up customer service and asked about it , they checked and my account was fine , usage up to few mb only , an unbilled amount was RM4.xx

mr lc, luckily you are using Digi instead of Maxis otherwise your bill is sky high already.
4GB so quickly.

anyways did you use the phone for internet tethering / downloading stuff from the internet using your phone ?
im using the maxis 500mb quota and i dont even exceed it.

my fren used up 3gb quota of data in one night as well. so im not surprised. but he used it to download blu ray movies.

dont tell me you use your phone to download blue movies? kekekekeke

mr. is

no internet tethering , only dloaded Facebook app , and 3G for checking mails , that time also this morning while i was in office it was activated , then only start 3g and test , suddenly 4++pm , 4GB alrdy sleep.gif"

Friend, your usage is actually 8Gb (combined) not only 4Gb......something is very wrong with your phone.....like doing something on its own.  ohmy.gif

I don't think any apps out thre can do 8Gb transfer in that span of duration. Probably your phone is showing some random figure...just reset the stats n see what happens next.....oh ya u should check your data usage with telco just to be safe.

Well alrdy reset the stats so far so good but as mentioned if the phone acting itself on both transfer which amounts to 8gb my battery wouldn t last that long.

Perhaps communication with some alien lolz

Its normal now....keep monitoring for a few days....and you're good to go....did u check with yor telco on the usage??

yeap , quite normal now , fingers crossed , to be honest I am very Happy with Digi CS , called up and rectify my problem immediately and assure me that the problem lies with the hardware , as in their data counter i wasn't even near 30mb that day , so i reset it and it's normal ...

i've got only 1 complain , 3G is slow in detecting , and at places reception can be terribad eg: at home ... haha

Digi has poorer coverage but yet the speed is superb if compared to maxis , was in Zouk Velvet last weekend , tested with my friend using maxis and opening websites , in the end

Maxis was slow , All 3 yrs i've been using maxis and now i just realised why didnt i chose digi earlier ...
