Billing cycle
Telstra’s billing cycle does not start at the first day of the month and end on the last day of the month. To find out how much of your mobile data plan you have consumed and when exactly your billing cycle starts and ends, use the following steps:
- Send an SMS text message containing the word ‘use’ to number ‘176’
- You will receive an SMS text message from Telstra containing information a) how much of your monthly data allowance you have used up to date, and b) how many days are left in your billing cycle. You can use this information to determine the exact start and end date of your billing cycle.
