Minor Member Centre issue with Unlimited

<Pedant mode>
Now I've changed to Unlimited and the 'View Your Usage' section shows me that my allowance is 0KB and that when I exceed this a further 0KB will be added at a cost of £0.00...
Shouldn't it be that I have an infinite allowance?
Alternatively, remove the references to allowances completely for Unlimited accounts?

Obviously this is a very minor issue and you've probably got better things to do!  Smiley

I suspect the allowance on unlimited is not set at infinity but at a figure no-one is liable to reach Cheesy

I think if you read the announcement thread you will see it's a known issue.

It's OK by me.
I'm on unlimited but still like to see my usage so wouldn't mind if the usage page is kept as is.

Re: Minor Member Centre issue with Unlimited

Absolutely agree that seeing usage is very useful and I'm not suggesting getting rid of the page, just correcting the references to 0KB...  Saying I've used 1.6GB out of 0KB is wrong - Saying I've used 1.6GB is fine.
As I said, there's probably far more important things to fix first  Smiley

I don't remember seeing any 0KB limit on the old Unlimited usage pages, although I didn't look at them very often.

That would be very dangerous as:
a) Some customers may try very hard to test this
b) It may lead to accusations that the product isn't unlimited as you're limited to 1 Yottabyte* per month

There's no limit set.
The 0kb display is something we're going to fix, it's raised as a bug and will be fixed once some higher priority issues have been resolved/
