It's hard to do any sort of sane maths when there are plenty of "unlimited" data contracts around. You have to dig into the small print, fair usage policies, etc. My own contract is one of these "unlimited" ones for £16 per month. I have no idea what the upper limit is, but I know that I once used over 3 TB without any warnings or speed throttling. I don't know if they'd cut me off if I did that regularly, though.

As for a more typical "normie" contract, my wife is paying £8 per month for 50 GB, so 16p per GB. If you trust Google's BTC quotation, that's 0.000002 BTC ÷ 0.00000001 = 200 sats.
I don't know how much was lost or added due to FX. Honestly, for my own plan above, it gets dangerously close to "a sat isn't small enough to pay for 1 GB".
