I got a ipad2 3g for christmas and set up the 3g access with 3 today, I used it for an hour on the bus, downloaded 1 song, and browsed the web, no streaming... its now saying I have exceeded the 15gb monthly limit, could that be right?
 
sounds like you have used up the free data limit that probably comes with the device and may need to purchase a data bundle could this be the reason?
 
The simple answer is no you can't use 15 GB in an hour over a 3g connection.
If you were achieving 3 Mbps and streaming for the full hour,you would use 1.3 GB .
However,a thought struck me,are you on a contract ?
If you activated your account very near the end of a billing cycle ,you would only get a pro rata of the 15 GB.
Have you checked you usage in My3 ?
 
No possible way you could have used that amount of data. As the other poster says, there may have been a problem with the amount of free data you were given. Sure 3 will sort it out if you give them a shout.
 
I paid €20 in the shop so I took it that he had signed me up for the month, I found a voucher code (blonde moment), will have to wait til I get home to set it up with the wi-fi.
