    Hello,

    I am using a pay as you go Lumia 735.

    I have noticed a few times now that it has downloaded data from my carrier and charged me for it. (perhaps because of updates.)

    Anyway, how do I stop this happening and only allow the phone to download via wifi.

    Thanks,

    Nevica

    1 Go to settings > Mobile+SIM > disable "data connection".
    With this you prevent the use of cellular data. If you do this you do not need to do below.
    2 Go to STORE > push the 3 dots ... > tap settings > enable "update over WiFi only.
    3 Go to the apps you use and disable the cellular data connection.
    4 Use data sense to restrict background data .
    5 Go to IE and push the 3 dots ... > settings > set Data Sense Savings.
