Change of product

Hey guys, I sent a request to switch over to extra at the end december since the 10gb allowance on value wasn't enough for me. I recall seeing a message saying it will change at my next billing date which is today, but I can't see any confirmation of my change in any emails or on my account at the moment. I just wondered if someone could confirm it went through okay? Also could I ask if my direct debit will now be my primary means of payment over my credit card since I set that up too when it was announced that you'd be charging an additional £1.50 for credit/debit payments.

Re: Change of product

Hi jh,
It looks like you've been banded as of early morning on the 6th Jan, probably due to connection drops (which aren't anything to do with the account change). Do you turn the connection off when you're not using it, or is it left on all the time? If the former it looks like you might just be turning off the router rather than disconnecting it via the interface, which looks like a connection drop to the exchange.
If you plug the router into the master socket (or even better the test socket behind the master socket front plate), what sync speeds do you get?

Re: Change of product

Internet seemed perfectly fine yesterday (6th). Minutes prior to the change over things we're fine as I was browsing the net until I couldn't for 30seconds or so when everything stopped @ 00:30. I leave my router on 24/7, but a fuse in the fusebox outside (lights 5amp) did blow over a good week ago and a few times the whole power supply was was turned off for a few seconds. I recently switched to my newer DG834G v3 as my old DG834GT was getting rather hot over the Christmas period causing some minor problems. My DG834G has been rock solid stable for the past 8 days since I finally was able to replace the blown 5amp BS1361 fuse outside in the fusebox:

Nothing seems to have changed in terms of sync. Always been plugged into the master socket, only socket in the house by the front door.
