Today, I woke up to 7 texts about the data overage charges that were accrued last night while I slept. Apparently my phone used nearly 8 GB of data, with no apps open, while I was sound asleep, leaving me with a $63 fee. FML

Shit, this is like the conclusion of a modern day ghost story. "But when the OP awoke the next morning, their phone had used $63 worth of data—without any apps open! OooooooOOOOooooo!"

Check your setting, under cellular data it should show what apps used data, and when. Some phones even let you to individually toggle what apps are allowed to use your cellular data.

That bytes Op, I would definitely get your phone checked out, like others are saying could be a virus or something along the lines of that. Then again, do you live alone? If not someone could just be screwing you over.

American cell plans / prices can get pretty bonkers. From what I've seen in Europe, you guys have it way better!

God do I love Verizon's safe mode!! Has prevented this situation for us a lot, especially with me being on my phone a lot.
