My usage this month Zero!!!

Just checked my usage this month and it is shown as Zero? Clearly something must be wrong, but what?
Thanks,
Alex

Re: My usage this month Zero!!!

I haven't had any usage states since the first month I was with PlusNet!
I thought they'd just given up tracking it...

Mine's showing 134GB web, but only 33GB streaming.... That can't be right, I'd expect my streaming usage to be far higher than anything else.

Hi Wo0x,
It depends which internet port the streaming service comes from. Some streaming can come through HTTP ports making it look like web when its actually steaming. There is no way for the system to work out if its a webpage or a video Smiley

They've had a fault logged on their service status page about the usage monitor not logging at all, or logging inaccurate information. I'd suggest that's what could have happened (if the above didn't).

Don't worry about the inconvenience, but I reported this nearly a week ago and the problem persists!  A whole week is a Century in computing, so what is happening, please?

Re: My usage this month Zero!!!

It's not a simple fix unfortunately. Our Development Team are working with Vendors to get this fixed as quickly as possible.
As stated on other threads of a similar nature, you will not be charged for any usage used if you're on a usage capped product when your usage is showing 0KB.

Re: My usage this month Zero!!!

I didn't think people bothered with the usage breakdown any more. AS pointed out as nice as it is it's never accurate as explained above.
