hmm

after receiving my verizonwireless broadband bills..

i got soo mad! this is 2nd time my kids has run up my bills again FIrst it was phone.. Then now its my verizonwireless broadband bills!

I signed up 2 years contracts!

I need to know what to avoid for these highest megabtyes to use online..

My daughter and son LOVES YouTubes! so Im about to forbidden them using them but I have switch to decide NOT to allow them use my Verizonwireless no matter what! but I want to avoid any other high megabtyes for my verizonwireless broadband..

According to my manager at the verizon wireless office he said youtube does have lots of megabytes, so I want to check out others such as my daughter loves myspace I often use it to check on her, I do know theres video and musics in these too so will it run up my megabtyes if I check on my daughter's myspaces ??


thanks for helping me out,
Wendy
 
This is the first time I've heard of anyone having this much of a limit on their broadband.

I use hundreds of GB of broadband myself and I'm using Roadrunner.

What's your limit?
 
for 1 total month it cost me 3,579.94.


got email from manager at verizonwireless....


i just got off the phone with customer service and they did explain to tme the bill. You used 12,426 megatbytes. 1024 megabytes equals 1 GB. 5 GB equals 5120 megabytes. 12426 minus 5120 equals 7306 over @ .49, which is 3579.94.


eeekkkk
 
Can't you get unlimited? or switch to different boardband? Like DSL or another cable? It'll save you money.

Need a program that can monitor on how much by use bytes thry internet.

For myself, I would disable the plug-in and image, when you want to read most of the time.
 
Verizon sucks, just switch to att then you will feel better.

att has limited for tethering only, no no from mobile.
