Mobile Web Data Usage

[cobbler]

I checked my usage and noticed that my account had used 1mb even though I had mobile web switched off, why would this be?

My data was recently refreshed over all the time the mobile data was off.

I checked which apps had been using data but always thought that as long as mobile web was off then it would only ever use wifi.

What Android are you running on ?

[cobbler]

Kitkat 4.4.4

In that case I don't know, sry

I know that 5.1.1 has a bug that keeps mobile data active even though you close it, causing extra data usage ( mobile radio ).

According to my carrier it's nothing to worry about being that it's so small amount of data.

I believe it to be the network pinging, similar to the superhub routers which let the network know it's there.

Yesterday was about 11kb in total all spread as 1 or 2 kb over the day.

Yes, that sounds completely normal. And they are right such a small amount of data is almost negligible.
