Want to know how much data, call minutes or texts you have left? With Budget Mobiel you can check that in a few taps — via the Budget Thuis app or online through MijnBudget. Handy if you want to avoid running out of data halfway through the month, or if you simply want to see whether your bundle still fits your usage.

In this article you'll learn exactly how to check your usage, what information you'll see and how to stay on top of your costs.

Check usage via the Budget Thuis app

The fastest way to check your usage is through the Budget Thuis app. You'll see at a glance where you stand with your bundle — without logging in via a browser or calling customer service.

What do you see in the app?

Once you log in, you get an overview of:

  • How much data you've already used (and how much you have left)
  • Number of call minutes and texts you've consumed
  • When your bundle renews (and you get full credit again)
  • Any extra bundles you've purchased

You can also directly from the app:

  • Buy extra data if you're about to run out of your bundle
  • Update your personal details (address, payment information)
  • View and download your invoices

Using Budget Mobiel's unlimited plan? Then you'll also see your daily usage. Budget Mobiel applies a daily limit of 4 GB — after those 4 GB you can manually request 1 GB extra. That request and the corresponding usage show up in the overview.

Download and install

The Budget Thuis app is available for free in the App Store (iOS) and Google Play Store (Android). Download the app, open it and log in with the same email address and password you use for MijnBudget. Don't have those details anymore? Then you can create a new password via the 'Forgot password' function.

Check usage via MijnBudget (browser)

Prefer working on your laptop or want to see something on a bigger screen? Then log in via mijn.budgetthuis.nl. Here you have access to exactly the same information as in the app — just via your browser.

Log in to MijnBudget

Go to mijn.budgetthuis.nl and enter your email address and password. You'll land directly on your personal dashboard, where you'll see your current usage displayed. Here too: can't find your login details? Use the 'Forgot password' link to log in again.

What can you manage online?

Via the browser you can:

  • View your current usage of data, call minutes and texts
  • Download invoices (handy for your administration or tax return)
  • Update your personal details (such as your address or IBAN)
  • Request extra credit or bundles if you need more

It works just as clearly as the app — you just don't get notifications on your phone. For those who want to check occasionally or prefer managing everything in one place, the browser version is a solid option.

Tips to stay on top of your usage

Checking your usage is one thing — but how do you make sure you don't run out of data halfway through the month? Or that you're not unnecessarily paying for a bundle that's too large? Here are some practical tips.

Check your usage weekly

Look at the app or MijnBudget every week to see how much data you've used. This way you'll spot patterns: do you stream YouTube every evening? Then you know you might need to be more careful towards the end of the month. Or that your bundle is actually too small.

Turn on notifications in the app

The Budget Thuis app can warn you when you're almost through your bundle. Handy if you don't want to check manually every week. This way you avoid suddenly running out of data — or making unexpected extra costs.

Monitor your daily data limit (with unlimited)

Have the unlimited plan? Then there's a daily limit of 4 GB. The app shows exactly how much you've used that day. After 4 GB you can manually request 1 GB — that also shows up in the overview. So you always know where you stand.

Compare your usage with your bundle

Consistently using only 2 GB per month while you have a 10 GB bundle? Then you're paying too much. The other way around: hitting your limit every month? Then it pays to get a larger bundle. The app and MijnBudget show your usage over multiple months — ideal for assessing whether your bundle still fits.

Who is this useful for?

Monitoring your usage is especially handy if you:

  • Have a limited bundle and don't want your data to run out before the end of the month
  • Want to save money by checking whether your bundle isn't too large (and therefore too expensive)
  • Have the unlimited plan and want to see how much you use daily (because of the 4 GB limit)
  • Travel abroad regularly and want to avoid unexpected extra costs

Even if you're just curious about your own usage, the overview provides insight. Maybe you stream more than you thought — or much less.

What if you have login problems?

Can't log in to the app or MijnBudget? Then try the following:

  • Forgot password? Use the 'Forgot password' link on the login page. You'll receive an email with instructions to create a new password.
  • Email address incorrect? Check if you're using the right address — it's the same address you used when you signed up for your subscription.
  • App not working? Delete the app and reinstall it. Sometimes it helps to clear the cache or restart your phone.
  • Still having problems? Contact Budget Mobiel customer service. They'll help you with login issues or technical questions.

Conclusion: how can I check my Budget Mobiel usage?
