Smartphones are an essential part of everyday life for many, with streaming, gaming, social networking and more all increasingly done on data-hungry mobiles. But with the pandemic leading many to spend more time at home (often on Wi-Fi), we want to see how much mobile data you now go through in a month.

Although I don't fully utilise my 100GB monthly allowance, I still value having such a high limit. During the lockdown while WFH, there have been occasions when my Virgin wi-fi has stopped working (sometimes for a few days) and I've had to tether off my phone to ensure I can carry on working. Therefore, I view having a large allowance as a safety net in case my home broadband stops working.
I have a deal with O2 for £20 a month that gives me 150GB of data a month - but I rarely use more than 10gb.
I imagine there'll be some that use all of their allowance monthly - but it may be that the majority don't use what they pay for?
If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.
