7AM isn't the middle of the night!
It's one of the most productive times of day - if only because no one else is up and that means peace and quiet!

I assure you, the new Nokia phones are in my experience nothing like they used to be...
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Yeah I know, After that other company bought them(I shall not use its cursed name) - they are just not the same.
That's why I used past tense at the end of my post

Along with what OriginalGriff said, you can also restrict background data for all apps at once by going to data usage and clicking on settings (at least on my S5 there is an option).
I recently got my S5 and from what I see, google play and its services tend to be very data hungry. Even if you don't install apps or browse google play for the night, it will run some background processes. Restrict the background data to only work on WiFi and you should be good. It can easily use over 25 MB per night.

Thanks: first thing I set on the phones was to turn background refresh off as well as switch of notifications for most apps.
We both have similarly setup phones and I've used a quarter of the data in double the time. Neither of us stream video or music and it always uses wifi in the house.
My biggest issue was why does she have to turn off cellular data at night? I don't and I do not have the issues. I have tweeted and will se what happens.

Sounds like a phone (configuration) issue rather than a carrier (i.e., AT&T) issue.
There are apps available that show you exactly how much data apps are downloading, and how much of that downloading is happening via mobile vs. wifi.

But why only at night and why is it only on her phone and not mine?
Also, if we have wifi, why is it even using mobile data???

There is a certain setting on Android phones that tell to disconnect WiFi when phone locks - that maybe the reason for the night usage...Check it...
(OT - it is funny how cost differ from place to place - I have two lines, each with 2GB data for only 14$ a month...I wonder if the difference is the same with incomes too...)

The UK is also much cheaper than the US: it is expensive here to use a cellphone.

Are you originally from the UK? You used whilst earlier in a post. Just wondering?
As for cell phone plans. They are all evil. Some more than others. Example, you may get great customer service with one, but the coverage area is terrible.

Made in the USA, raised in the UK. Best of both.

The price is high in some places because they believe they can get it that high. They have better coverage than other companies and other companies cannot compete with them. They are just trying to get as much out of your pocket as they can.

Awesome technology, no prototype available yet so I'm wondering how close they really are?

Yeah I agree and would probably wait for V2.0!
Hope it's android though because the equivalent of BSOD might be a tad uncomfortable?

I'm thinking they might cash in on the assault and battery charges because I hear the camera is to be in the middle finger.

I look around at all the seriously skinny arms on display (oriental women) and think this will have a hard time getting accepted in Asia.
