Hello:
As per most mobile providers the international pay per use data fees are as clear as mud.
For the examples below are the data allotments per bill cycle (as SMS is clearly spelled out or per text) or for a 24hr period like some other providers?
In other words if I am in the USA for 14 days during my bill cycle and use only 40MB of data in total will I only be charged $10 as its under the 50MB cap?
I ask as iPhones appear to have data leakage issues irrespective of cell data and roaming being off. Example being 0.7kb in system services to find a new time zone and I’m tired of being charged 12-16$ for roam like home services when this leakage happens.
Taking the SIM out or using Airplane mode is not an option as I have an elderly mother and I may have an emergency call. I also can’t access any Banking Info that requires sending two step SMS codes!!
In other words its bloody frustrating. Any help appreciated.
Thanks
G
