You cant that Im aware of, apart from installing a 3rd party app to monitor data usage I guess. I use the same plan but use wifi more than anything so my data just grows so when I do use it, I dont bother checking it :)

I have the same problem with spark in that when my plan's data runs out they kept charging me for casual data.
In the end the easiest solution was to only top up each month and leave no balance on the account.
I never run out of minutes or texts so that works for me. YMMV.
Geektress: Thanks thought I was going mad not finding a setting to do this, sounds like skinny it is then

May be worth the ask, to see if 2d can just toggle the different billing on the plan or bar it.
Aside from that, i'd set the data limit and period within the device settings. android is very good about warning you your close, and stopping your data when it's over unless you go no i want you to enable.

Carriers should be providing the option to remove casual mobile data charges when included data runs out
Can you do wifi calling on 2 degrees prepay?

@Bluntj Yes but not sure how this is related to this thread and it's covered on the 2degrees Wi-Fi calling page

my problem is exactly that - if you are on plan 2degrees doesn't let you use casual data, you have to buy one of their 'packs' ($10 minimum). option is the key word
