Yep - €3000 buys 3333kB

I knew I'd done some bad maths somewhere!

all these 10s, 100s, 1000s, it's bound to happen once in a while

Anyway thanks to the new international rate can be interesting to use some "Imode pass" options by Wind.

"Imode Pass" is simply the name, but you can use the APN that you prefer (internet.wind too)
So it's really better to activate a "Imode Pass 50" than a new "Mega No Limit" for the same data limit abroad... you can save 14€ and... you don't have any risk of bankrupt

Hmm, besides the horrible rate of 0.90€/kB, Mega is IMHO a really strange tariff solution.
The basic idea of packets of minutes/messages/data is that the customer pays in advance at "wholesale" unit rate which is lower than the regular rate. The only risk to the customer is "low usage risk" if the packet is used in a small part or not used at all before it expires. However, there's no "high usage risk" because after using all the packet the regular rate (or even lower) applies to the service. Thus the "high usage" customer who exceeds with limit of the packet pays less to compare with the situation of not purchasing the packet.
