dankatand,
I know how important it is to ensure that your data is being correctly tracked and billed. We're here to help. Data is tracked in 6 hour blocks, so the timestamp is not usually the exact minute when most of the data was used.
As Ann154 mentioned, knowing the make & model can be helpful, because then we can help you tweak your settings, to ensure data isn't used when you aren't intending to use the LTE network.

Do you have Wi-Fi assist enabled? Do you turn off the cellular data connection when you expect to be connected to a Wi-Fi router for extended periods of time? The iphone has a sleep policy where the Wi-Fi goes to sleep when the phone is on standby allowing the cellular data to become active again and the apps can use background data over cellular instead of Wi-Fi.

Dankatand, thank you for providing the information about your phone. Thank you Ann154 for always providing great support. Let's check the settings on your phone to make sure everything is set up correctly. Follow this link to make sure the Wi-Fi assist is not enabled:

dankatand,
The information you provided is appreciated. The iPhone 6 will give you the option to track the data being used in the settings under cellular. We recommend resetting the statistics when your billing cycle begins to track data properly. To complete this reset you go to your settings >cellular > scroll to the bottom and tap the reset statistics button.
