Home broadband Internet usage trippled

nok2008 · 2015-10-23 18:05:06

Hi Over the last 2/r 3 months the home internet usage has nearly tripelled and so has the bill!!! To me the usage would appear the same over the last 12 months. The only thing I can think of is that we use Google drive a lot over the last few months and wondering whether that would drive usage up. Any help appreciated!!!

Depends on what you are saving to google drive. When I set up my phone to save photos to google drive it used up a decent chunk of data on my phone.

I found that my mobile broadband tripled recently & couldn't figure out what it was. Everything we were doing was fairly normal. Turned out that we started using netflix through the playstation instead of the computer. It tripled the data that was being used.
