Data usage with mobile data OFF and roaming DISABLED
I have been on vacation recently to Philippines and before boarding the airplane I have made sure on both my mobile phones roaming is disabled and mobile data is switched off. On my private phone (Intex Aqua Fish with Sailfish 2.1.4.14) I have noticed that, even though mobile data is disabled, the phone still is using a tiny bit mobile data.
I cannot yet see the exact amount of data used ( I have to wait for my telephone bill) but I can see that the mobile data used while abroad will be €0.17 . I know it is not a big deal to pay 17 cents but if I switch OFF mobile data combined with roaming switched OFF I would rather have no single bit of data used.
When I get my phone bill, I will check the amount of data (bytes) that has been used, and post here.
Does anyone know why the phone can consume data with mobile data and roaming switched OFF ?

As promised after receiving my telephone bill, to add the internet usage that my phone did with mobile data and roaming both switched OFF.
