Sometimes web pages can run into several megabytes per page view. Also some apps can be a few meg too. Also if she has background data and auto sync enabled that can use a bit too.
I'd call up CS and see if they can't give you a more detailed breakdown. Seems crazy if they can't.
Also download 3G Watchdog from Android Market which would help her/you keep track of usage.

I suppose that's possible. She's been getting used to it and would have no way of knowing how much data she's downloaded. I suppose viewing any music or other video and pictures would be what she should really watch out for and maybe that's what's happened. Also I think she's been viewing Google Maps and using a weather forecast app for 3 cities so that's being updated regularly in the background I'd imagine but I don't know how much data that sort of thing would involve. The phone appears to be set to connect to web automatically so we may turn that off if we can find out how to. She's not here to ask right now but I'll mention it to her. We will try VM customer services when we get time and see if they can shed any light on what the charges are for but you might just be right about the daily limit.
Thanks for the help.
