Charge for BT Broadband not on Bill?

I live with my folks at the moment.  The BT bill is in my dad's name, but I have always paid for the broadband connection.  I was with UKOnline until BSkyB shafted them.
A week or so before the 30th November 2010 I went to BT's website and signed up on line for BT Unlimited broadband in my name, (but using our house's BT account number).  I echatted with a BT support person that said this was okay as long as I had the bill payers permission.
On the 30th November the switch happened and we have been on BT broadband to date.
Initial emails stated I would pay 24.99GBP (for the broadband) plus 4.99GBP for postage for the BT Home HUB.
My father pays the BT bill by Direct Debt monthly, but he told me tonight that his Direct Debt is still the same as before and the broadband has not appeared on the bill.
Can I just check that the money is taken monthly?  Or is it at some other period?
Thanks.
Chris.

That does seem to be the case, but its still weird!
The DD has gone up from 17GBP odd a month to 65GBP odd a month.  The bill states the broadband is paid up till March 2011!  Not sure how a 50 quid a month increase covers a 24.99 bill?
I suspect though, like most companies that use DD, they have seen an opportunity to have our money in their bank account rather than in ours, and have seized it with both hands!
Chris.

  • Charges for exceeding Broadband limit

    I've just received my latest quarterly bill and find I'm being charged £5 for going over the 40 Gig limit on my Infinity 1 account for November last year.
    The email that was sent out at the time said that my usage for that month was 44 Gig.
    If BT charge for usage over the limit in 5 Gig increments at a cost of £5.30 surely I needed to hit 45 Gig before incurring additional charges.
    Curious

    Flo, I think you will find that that will not apply for all the reasons already given. A post on a forum by an employee will not be regarded as a policy or terms and condition that the company can be held to. Imagine if an employee posted that from now on all bills will receive a 75% discount. Will the company be held to that? It was a post that was correct t time of posting but has since been superseded. I'm sure you could find many such posts if you searched.
    gg303040, that is illogical. By that argument, every sticky on the BTcare forums posted by a BT Staff member is not official policy and should carry a disclaimer to the effect that the views expressed by Mods are not to be taken as official BT policy.
    For instance, this sticky at

    Hi Folks,
    We stopped supplying BT Broadband Talk to new customers in January 2011 and we have posted recently that BT planned to withdraw the service in 2013.  Just to update you, this date has been deferred. The BB Talk service will be withdrawn, but not till after 2013.  Please be assured we will let you know before the service is removed.

    Are we not expected to believe that and trust in it?
    If so, how do we know which stickies and comments made by the Mods are valid and which are not?

  • Are you serious???Really??? $9 charge for $1 surprise increase in bill that was paid days later???

    ATT has had for a long time ongoing "bill creep".  Now I get a $9 charge for a $1 surprise increase on monthly fee that I paid as soon as I discovered it!!!!  I had automatic payments set up on my bank account for the originally agreed upon monthly charges. This is just so wrong.  I will not waste an hour of my life (normal phone time whenever I have had to call ATT about anything in the past--also true of all my friends).  I will try my best to find another provider that will honor its original agreement about monthly charges and not charge outrageous fees for setting up its customers.   I left the home phone service a while back for "bill creep" (and am saving almost 90% on my bill) after being a customer for decades, so now I will leave Uverse for the same rotten reason as soon as I can find another provider. I truly HATE this company. Pat 

      So, you don't bother to check the monthly bill before the automatic payment is deducted? I seem to get an email each month listing the $ amt and when it is going to be charged to my CC.
    Have to say it is on you for not doing that, not ATT for increasing your bill $1.  Generally bills increase in the Feb billing, not any other month.

  • Charged for SMS - did not use SMS

    I have been charged for 2 SMS. I do not use SMS. The number listed for SMS in my detailed usage is a landline which is not capable of sending SMS. Spent 30 minutes on support chat with a rep who had a very poor grasp of english and accomplished nothing. Will be canceling Skype after this billing period.

    I am now unable to send SMS messages from Skype, in spite of having a credit in my acct.
    The message in the dialogue box is "to send a SMS to this number you need to verify your number.

  • Charge for stopping broadband

    BT's Charge for stopping my broadband is a rip off !!! - I had to pay £30 for stopping my broadband/phone as I am going over seas for a year (Australia), even though I have been loyal to them over a long period of time !! When I return I will never use there products again.

    The cease charge whether or not you agree with it is in the terms and conditions that you agreed to when you signed up with BT. It is applied by all ISPs.

  • Been charged for additional broadband usage & don'...

    I have 2 broadband connections into my house. One is a BT infinity line with 40gb included & The other is an unlimited business line through another company.
    We've had the infinity line for just over a year & originally the only devices connected to it were the BT Vision box, my sons ipad & my sons iphone. Mine and my husbands devices are all connected to the business broadband. We connected my sons to BT as a way of monitoring his usage but he's only 9 so we weren't anticipating huge usagev through it. Since Christmas my parents smart phones have been connected to it but they are only in our house for 2 hours every 2 weeks or so and as they are in their late 70's they're not playing games or downloading on them
    On January 13th I had an email saying I was at 28gb and then on the 19th one to say i was at 36gb. I didn't think too much about it. Then on 18th Feb I had an email to say I'd used 72gb in January. I should probably have looked into it more closely at the time but I've been battling cancer so it really didn't rate high on my priorities at the time. However when I got an email on 12th April saying usage for the April was already at 28gb I told my husband to disconnect my sons devices from the BT Internet and connect them to our unlimited broadband. Despite him doing thisI got another email on 14th April saying we were at 36gb and then yesterday I got an email to say we had used 58gb in April. Struggling to understand how we can have used 22gb with no devices connected to it apart from the BT vision box and maybe one or two phones for a handful of hours.
    I've spent 2 hours on live chat tonight with a very nice person in what I presume was India from his name & he sent me a day by day breakdown of my usage for the past 30 days. Interestingly it showed 3.5 gb of usage on a day that my son and I were staying in a hotel & my husband was out at work all day. This also shows usage this month so far of over 16gb with virtually nothing other than BT vision connected to it all month. The gentleman on livechat suggested someone else might be using our broadband but I'm not sure how this can happen. Other than that he couldn't suggest anything to help me resolve this issue. I am obviously disputing the additional charges I have incurred.
    Can anyone help me as I'm at a total loss what to do next

  • Overage Charge for prior month on first bill

    Got my first Verizon bill today and found something interesting.  I was charged for going over my data for the prior month to the tune of $15 for a gig.  Problem is, I've only had the phone for a month and there is no prior month on my account!
    Or at least there shouldn't have been.  Looks like my billing cycle started the day after I got the phone, so all the data from setting up my phone in store was overage.  This is crap.  Anyone else notice this?

    That one day of the prior billing cycle was prorated based on the data plan you selected and divided by the number of days in the billing cycle.

  • HT4060 my ipad has been charging for days and not taking the charge what else can be wrong.?

    i have an apple i pad 16 gb...i have it charging for days and its not taking the charge what else can i try...

    Could be the charger, cable or the iPad.
    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    And this - Unplug the charger from the iPad and then replug. May resume charging.
    Or - Recalibrate the battery. See link below.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Itunes stopped working mid download- charged for song- did not recieve

    I went onto itunes and purchased a song. Within 5 - 7 seconds of downloading the song an error message apprears saying: iTune has stopped working - A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
    Unfortunately, Windows has not found a solution. I then go to find my song and it is not there, however, I have been charged for the song.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I decided to go back onto my computer to redownload it, if the songs just didn't get to download fully, and iTunes didn't let me download it again.
    Doublechecking. Did you delete the two songs (and their associated files) from your iTunes library prior to attempting the redownload?

  • Acct charged for an app not able to use

    I'm new to the "ipod world".  I got a 4th gen ipod touch for my child for christmas.  We are trying to learn how to use the ipod to the best capabilities.  He got an app gift card loaded to his acct just fine.  When he tries to download a Adventures of Tin Tin game it pops up that there is not enough memory for the game to download but his acct was already charged for the game.  He is not able to play the game and I believe that his acct was charged twice because he tried to download again.  How or what do I need to do to correct this?  It doesn't seem fair for him to be charged for an app twice that he can't even use.

    - If he was signed into he same iTuns account that originally purchased the app he will not be charfged again for a redownload,.
    - To downloag and install an app there must be storage space available on the iPod that is over two times greaer than the app download fle size. The error message yu are getting is tell you that there is not sufficient storage space.  Items need to be deleted from the iPod to free up storage space.

  • HT201272 I keep getting charged and I can not access billing history, what can I do?

    Can someone help me, I keep getting charged 1.99 USD and dont know why.  When I tried to look at my billing history the link does not work.

    How are you trying to view your account's purchase history ? You can only view your full purchase history via your computer's iTunes : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it, click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases. On an iOS device you can only see a cut-down version via http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    Is that how you were trying to view it ?
    If you keep being charged the same amount, and if at the same frequency, then do you have any auto-renewing subscriptions : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098 ?
