Has anyone else noted an increase in the amount of data usage in the last 12/24 hours? My data usage for Feb 17 went up from my usual 150-300 mb to nearly 5GB & overnight from 50-100 mb to 8gb. Is it just me or is this a glitch like the problems last year when data stopped recording altogether? I have not used my computer for anythng different to usual activities.

something funny going on here, I managed (supposidly) to use 30gb yesterday when I was only on the laptop for a short while. and I managed to use 18gb (free) last night between 12am and 7am,
my daughter managed to use 10.99 gb when she was out most of the day, only used for a very short while to check her e-mails

Same here.
18 Gb during the day when no-one at home and nothing running. Phoned plusnet in the evening. "Problem plusnet end".
Awoke this morning to find we show a further 20 Gb usage overnight.

Judging from the last reply (and others) it seems it's a problem that Plusnet are aware of. I'd already raised a question via the website (and also Twitter). I suppose we wait till it's sorted ...
Thanks all for responses.

Bit early for a response on here - not normally staffed by PlusNet until around 0900.
The data usage reporting problem isn't affecting everyone - nothing unusual here.
