Exactly how is your data use calculated? I have Verizon and pay $15 a month on my Envy touch for data use, I think it is 20 mb, I don't even know never gone over. I basically only use my phone's internet service to check scores when I am stuck at family functions and can't see a big game.

They are able to track the transmissions between your phone and their servers. Total throughput means they see the 1s and 0s of your connection to their server and calculate it that way. You should be able to log onto your account and see your data usage.
