ALTOX eating Giff Gaff credit !

Am I imagining it or is anyone seeing higher rate of credit being eaten after installing latest Altox app ?

Curiously, my Giff Gaff email says I've used "21,52 minutes" and zero texts. Is it phoning its friends ? Laughing

Have I selected the wrong option somewhere ? Data usage looks reasonable @ 12Mbytes in last 30 days.

No expert but have you sent it the texts to stop the sim sending texts to itself every few days? I got advised to do this and my credit seems to be stable.

The messages to text are
Btimer2:0
and
Btimer1:0

When I set up initially mines was texting itself near instantly. Phone sounded like a fruit machine! Soon killed that loop!

However I later discovered that I seem to be using 1mb of data (2p or sometimes 3p) at what seems like every 6.5 hours. So even though I am not texting it, my balance is slowly ticking down.

I can only see the last 5 transactions but it seems like there is some kind of low level periodic handshake or ping happening?
