Quick question:

If i go over my data allowance say by 0.02 gb (30GB allowance ...usage is 30.02)

Then do i get charged $2 automatically ? even if i only used 0.02 , not 1GB ?
Or do they calculate it based on per mb ?

You will get charged for the next pack even if you use only a portion of it.

Hmm last month I used 0.89gb over the limit and was charged $1.77 ($2 per 1GB)

Ok, so you think it's pro rata. So why ask the question then? Or call their help desk.
