I have the same issue.  Living outside of DC in Virginia, we are well within the LTE Advanced scope.  I upgraded from the 6 Plus to a 7 Plus in September.  If anything, my service has been worse and I have been consistently looking service over a whole city area of Springfield, VA.  My phone would indicated that i have NO SERVICE, had to restart phone for it to pick up. 

Hi Yosef, I had to delete every one of my apps that I transferred over from my 4s and I was still going over data.  I used all the same apps from my 4s and in the same manner and frequency. (I tracked my data useage for 2 years and i never went over 2gb of data).   I turned cell data off on EVERYTHING except for facebook which I check occationally and google maps.  Once I turned imessages off, I wasn't getting overages.  (but I had to increase my plan twice to insure that).  Now I can't use the apps I used to have and can't use them except on wifi without going over my data allowance within a few days of my plan starting each month. I've messaged some family members and they indicated that their messages to me were automatically changing to imessage, though i have had it shut off since October.  I did restart my phone yesterday, but changed no settings, which is when I suddenly couldn't recieve messages anymore.  All the previous threads were in SMS.  Why would it change to imessage within an SMS thread just from a phone restart?
