View My Broadband Usage

Is this broken?  all I see is a message

Sorry, there's nothing to show at the moment.
This might be because your account is new, or your usage has been reset for a new billing period.
It can take up to 4 hours for your usage to show up - please try again later.

Was same when I tried yesterday as well.

Re: View My Broadband Usage

As far as I'm aware there's no issues with it.
I'll check with the relevant people in the morning.
After the 3rd of November I will have a limited presence here as I have moved to a new role

Re: View My Broadband Usage

Well, I can access my usage but... I see large zeros for yesterday and today. What's going on?

Re: View My Broadband Usage

Yes it is broken , I have had no usage information since I joined last November and they can't fix it
for my account !
I seem to report this at least every month or so but it never gets fixed.

You could try disconnecting from Plusnet using your router's admin interface, then reconnect again. This will start a new PPP connection which sometimes prompts VMBU to start recording again.
Note, this will not lead to missing usage being filled in, the current zeroes will stay as zero.

Re: View My Broadband Usage

I reported it as broken on 30th of June as mine went AWOL after my last billing period (19th) and not re-appeared since.
I was told they were aware of the issue and that it didnt matter because I was on an unlimited product.   I was also told that it had been broken for a while and  they would likely be doing away with VMBU all together.

So from that you can clearly see that there is a known issue with VMBU and they are aware of it.
I asked why there wasn't an SS about it, but the impression given was -  its broken but didnt matter and unlikely to be fixed Sad

I first had problems with it in November 2013 and it regularly crops as a problem on here.

Re: View My Broadband Usage

Not just me then! Just thought I'd take a look and found the message that either my account is new or it's the start of a new billing period, neither of which apply to my account. Not too much bother as it's unlimited but I was wanting to check how much bandwidth something had been using.

Re: View My Broadband Usage

My Usage monitoring stopped working 15 months ago and I first got the "were on it" statement then the same as Kitz "you don't need it anyway".  It wasn't this apathetic when I joined PlusNet 13 years ago.

Re: View My Broadband Usage

I've a feeling whether it works or not depends upon which gateway you are on. Until my gateway changed yesterday I was on pcl-bng02 and VMBU wasn't working. I'm now on ptw-ag01 and it is working.
