I haven't been able to browse the web on my phone since one in the afternoon. except when connected to wifi. My Facebook Messenger app still works - so I'm still getting data and I'm on the internet, but the browser claims it can't resolve the DNS requests to sites such as google, facebook, or godaddy. If it helps I live in Winnipeg, Manitioba and was able to use my browser yesterday evening when not on WiFi. Sorry if this should have gone in Phones - I wasn't sure

Nevermind... resetting my phone and unplugging the SIM card worked.

Lower down on your overview page do you see mention of your data component? If not, you may have finished it. Did you get any texts warning that you're getting down in data?
Maybe restart the phone too.
