This is correct.

I used 9-10GB the monthe this went into effect, but i was torrenting movies. i have since ceased my torrenting while tethered and dropped down to around 5GB a month....

Yeah... I regularly go well over 5gb... So, a long time ago when this was first initiated... I called them and asked. They said that it was only for the cards and not for the Cell Phones... I've gone all the way up to about 35gb in a month... So, I can say with certainty that it has nothing to do with your cell phone...

35GB? Wow. 10 is probably my max.

I have a Sero account, I always to between 8-10 GB a month, been doing it over a year now. Last month was 12+ GB. I can't figure out were the extra 2-4GB came from last month.
