Approaching usage allowance message when nowhere near

[#1]

Got pretty close to 10 Gbyte usage allowance last month. Then 3 days into new period received another of these warning emails. Alarmed, I checked usage & it's less than 400 Mbyte. What's going on?

Welcome to the forum. You're obviously on a very old tariff so probably paying well over the odds for the privilege. If you ring Plusnet you will probably find that you can negotiate an unlimited service for no more money in exchange for a contract.

To get the best deal look up a competitors price then when ringing select the 'I'm thinking of leaving option' and ask Plusnet to match it. You may be pleasantly surprised and have no more monthly limit worries.

Thanks for the suggestion, but my question was how am I getting usage warning messages when I have used less than 5% of my allowance.

You need to get a member of Plusnet staff to answer that one I'm afraid. Probably things that go bump in the night caused it.

Hi there.

I'm not sure why you've received this email but I've raised a task with our infrastructure engineers to try to find out.

I've also opened a ticket on your account with more information which you can view and reply to from Here.
