In case of Xfinity I actually pay additional $30 a month not to worry about the data caps. But my guess other providers might not have this option. That's what I had to do when I was on Comcast. For my cell phone I set a soft/hard limit based on my plan but I never use more than 110MB/mo so I doubt I will hit it. I've since moved to a place that has fiber and does not care how much bandwidth I use. Some of their employees brag about being the top data hogs so I know they do keep track of it but they said they have never limited anyone. So I suppose that is how I dealt with it, I moved.
