In Latvia I currently as a company pay 12,40 EUR per month for everything unlimited plan per subscription (have 3 numbers in total). High speed Internet is capped only abroad, when I'm in other EU countries. And I even had cheaper offer from different carrier, just didn't want to use them because of worse coverage at countryside and other reasons.

It's actually lower than this for India.
I get an unlimited plan (calling and messages with a few OTT subscriptions for 3 months in almost $10. The high speed internet is capped at 2 GB per day.
10/90 = 0.11 for 2 GB so it's actually 0.55 or less considering I also get a lot of other benifits.

Yep! In Portugal there are also plans and subscriptions that make the price per GB vary a lot. I tried to find out what the assumptions are for these values, but I couldn't, which is a shame.

I am very surprised to see countries like Mexico or Argentina so high on the list...
Now it will be interesting to see a list of the purchasing power of average citizens worldwide.
Do you happen to have any similar data?

Here in Peru the cost is cheap... and I thought that in Chile, which is our neighboring country, the price per GB would be more or less the same, but I now realize that it is not... and boy, in the United States it is very expensive!!

Although Peru, which is the country where I am currently located, does not appear, telephone rates are expensive and also depend on how many benefits you get.

When l was in taiwan, it was so cheap.
Came back to the usa and was shocked at how expensive things were.
I had to ween myself off from using so much data and keeping my apps always open.
