Hello Community,

We are here to help.  Please visit our Check current usage for data, talk, and text site.  You'll find helpful information on viewing your AT&T wireless data usage online by navigating to the Billing & Usage section in your MyAT&T account.

  1. Go to Usage.
  2. Review your current balance info for talk, text, and data use. If you have linked accounts, select My wireless and See all my usage.

Also, dialing *3282# (for Spanish, dial *3286#) from your AT&T wireless phone is a great way to access AT&T star services which is a quick and easy way to check your current usage from your device.

 

Dial star services from your AT&T wireless phone just like you're making a call. We’ll send a text message with your data and messaging usage.

 

What's more, to know how much data you're using and to keep your monthly bills predictable we invite you to view Manage your wireless data use. Here, you will find answers to some of the most FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS including "When do I use wireless data?" and "How can I use less data?"

 

Under Use less data, you will find helpful tips to prevent going over your monthly wireless data allowance which include connecting your devices to a Wi-Fi network. This helps you use less wireless data and if your device can't connect to Wi-Fi, it automatically switches back to cellular data. Did you know? Some apps on your device use wireless data even when connected to a Wi-Fi network.

Give this a try and let us know how this works. We definitely want you to take control of your data so that you're prepared on what to expect with each bill.

 

We hope this info helps. Thank you for contacting AT&T Community Forums.

Dial *3282# from your phone and you'll get a text message showing your current data and text usage.

And if you just got the data package you won't be able to see your usage online until after the next billing cycle. FYI
