How do i find out how many magabites i have downloaded on my 3mobile broadband account?

Question

I recently opened an account with 3 for their mobile broadband..but I cant figure out how to keep track of how much i have downloaded. Im using it with a mac, and when i open the connection it doesnt tell me how much i have downloaded... The contract is 19.99euro a month but if you go over the download amount it gets really expensive.

Can anyone tell me how I can find out how much i have downloaded so I can keep track?!

Thanks :)

Answer 1

i was wondering the same, I do know 3 are a rip off tho and call centres you will be lucky to understand them

Answer 2

If your on the 10gb tarrif I wouldn't really worry about hitting your limit unless you downloading a lot of movies or heavy data.
10gb allows you to view about 7000 web pages a day without going over your limit....
You can download sofware to keep a track of it but it's not really necessary...

You can call three on 083 3333333 or their broadband technical support on 1800 944 034 (free in the republic of Ireland)
You can also call customer care for free from your 3 mobile on 333, they will tell you how much you have used.
The 10gb is more of a fair usage policy than anything else, they average user uses between 2gb and 4gb per month

If you don't have a 3 mobile you could pick up a great bargin at www.irishmobile.ie

Google BitMeter. I find this good. I have a 40gb usage.
