MetroPCS Data Usage...

[N7AS]

I use an LG Optimus F6 om MetroPCS on the $40/500MN plan. When I log into my account it shows 1% for data usage. When I look at the Data Usage app on my phone it shows so far 221MB. It was about 8MB today until I ran Speedtest a couple of times and it climbed to 221MB. My question, which one is correct? Data usage on the MetroPCS website or my app on the phone?

Both are inaccurate

Because using a speestest app uses a $h*the load of data, I highly recommend you stop using them. 20 mbps Internet speed running on speed test. If it's running for 10 seconds @ that speed, your data is going down the toilet. I Forget the converted figure for megabits to megabytes but still, it's wasting altogether.

8 megabits is equal to 1 megabyte. I definitely agree with not using speed test apps when you only have 500MB of high speed data each month.

I talked to MetroPCS CS today and asked how much data I have used and she told me 10.08MB. On my account page it shows 2% which looks like it's correct. I have 3 data usage apps on my F6 and the only one that seems to be accurate is My Data Manager.

I guess the other 2 apps are history.
