Are you using 4G?
Google+ is known to be a data eater
Definitely auto-sync off?
Installed any apps recently?
Run adblock / airpush just in case
Not left your WIFI / GPS on?
You got email running constantly? Or some form of auto-drop box running?
Got loads of data-hungry widgets on your home screens?
Auto-updates (Playstore & Firmware) both turned off? You positive?

Got email push, but it comes up as a separate program in the data counter,in fact everything that could possibly be using data comes under it's own usage.
This seems to be quite a widespread problem and I'm starting to think it's an issue with the way the built in data usage app works because my overall usage seems resonable, 2GB in a month even though it says Android OS used half of that.

I've heard ios 6 has been chewing up people's data as well even when they are on WiFi.

Known software issue apparently!

Loaded defender results seem a lot more sensible the codec on catchup tv is awsome 9mb to watch top gear and the quality is perfect

Surely that's not possible, or am I just that far behind the times? :)
Thats because it take 3 seconds for Clarkson to appear and people to go "ugh, fuck no" and switch it off.
