It is possible by the way for them to do that; although would take some work. What they would do is use the TTL value on packets, so they know how many hops the packet has made to reach their first router. Would be 1 from the phone itself and 2 from other things connected to the phone, three for packets that have gone through two routers na kadhalika, obviously some devices mask this so ..., but its a start and some UK ISPs used to do that on modem connections for "personal" use.

in this day and age, no need for that, especially if they charge per MB - let them use as much as they want and bill them :)
