Does anyone who recieves fully itemised paper bills from t mobileknow if data usage (Internet browsing) is fully itemised by session and time (like calls are), or does it just list a line at the end saying "you've used 381KB this month"?
I've had a look in the "my t mobile" thing online, and under "unbilled usage" it lists every data use as a "blow by blow", "minute by minute" usage record, but the same thing on paper is what I really need...

    On my T-Mobile paper bill, it lists the total usage, as well as time, duration etc of each time I connected :)

    Though interestingly, some months it doesn't. I'm never really sure why and the customer services girl at T-Mobile couldn't tell me either.

    I think if you have calls/texts or data usage outside of your monthly allowance, then its listed on the paper bill (but only as a summary total, not a complete breakdown).

    If there is no such usage, then no itemisation is displayed on paper bills - you can only view it online or download it to a spreadsheet and print yourself.

    Personally I find all those graphs and faq page a waste of paper and of no use to me.

    So you end up with a 50-million-page bill at the end of the month?

    That could actually explain why sometimes its there and sometimes it isn't!

    Not normally, I don't use the internet on that particular phone too much.
