how do I find out how much data I use on average over last few months?

I want to move to a new contract, but would like to know my typical data usage, so I can ensure I purchase the correct amount of data for my needs. I was hoping I'd be able to find it on the website (which is extremely unhelpful and appears to be all about upgrades, rather than providing useful info!)

You should be able to find this on 2 places

1: Android & Apple phones have an in-built data counter - synch the counting period to match your billing cycle, and scroll through the past (in the case of Android) 5 months.

2: Check each of your monthly bills which will have a "data used" breakdown.

The figures for any given month may vary slightly between each method, due to rounding & counting differences.

Thanks - but my monthly bills don't show a data breakdown - possibly because it's unlimited, so technically not needed month by month - but as I'm moving to a new contract, I'd like to know.

Hey @TomSanctuary 😊

Welcome to the EE Community!

You should be able to see these details if you log into the browser version of your EE account.

Once logged in, make sure your number is selected, then go to 'View Usage', and if you scroll down you'll be able to find 'Usage History'.

Just be aware that in the usage stats, it includes any data you may have gifted too.
