Good news if you’ve got a phone or mobile broadband contract with Virgin Mobile: it has just dropped the rate for excess data usage from $2.05 per MB to a more reasonable 20.5 cents per MB.Picture by Mark Metcalfe/Getty Images
That rate is charged per kilobyte, and it’s a welcome shift. Prepaid customers don’t do quite so well; the rate there is still $2 per megabyte (though again it’s charged per KB). That said, it still makes sense to get a contract with sufficient data for your needs, whoever the carrier.
