I almost never have my phone connected to cellular data. I use a cheap pre-paid plan and have kept the same 2 gigs for over 2 years. The first time I used cellular data was to check in to a clinic (January 2021). Just checking in at their website used somewhere between 3 and 6 megabytes of data. Something I could have theoretically done, faster, with a single SMS to an email address or phone number.
- throwaway1777 4y agoFYI you can probably get unlimited data now for same price as your old cheap plan, at least in the US.
- pxeboot 4y agoFor very minimal use, a "cheap prepaid plan" can cost $5 a month or less.
- anonymouskimmer 4y agoExactly. I'm paying a bit less than $7 a month. And that includes having to reup on a slightly more expensive plan every few years for more minutes.
- throwaway1777 4y agoFair enough, that is super cheap and minimal.
