Monthly charges increase

hi all looking for some advice We have an unlimited anytime calls and broadband package. The reason we took out this package is that we wanted to know that we would never have to ay anymore than the agreed amount unless we avail of additional services. (o help us stick to our monthly budget) In august we decided to upgrade our BT account by adding BT vision. After spending half an hour on the phone on 2 occasions dicussing the packge that we needed and an error being made in the letter sent to notify us of the charges we finally got the package we wanted and agreed a price, £49.25 per month a confirmed by letter from BT with an additional one off £60 charge for the vision box. However they took £73.00 from our account in September (which I thought was part payment for the box £60) £99.50 in October (Again I assumed this overpayment this was for the Vision Box) However when I noticed he £99.50 again this month I contacted BT immediately. The lady I spoke to did reduce my payments to £49.25 as pr the letter as it matched what she had on her screen for the payments. I called out all the various line rental and packages charges all matched so how could they possible assume that I should be paying £99.50 per month!!! I was told it was a computer assessment based on previous and future usage however on an unlimited package I just don't get it.. At the minute we feel that BT owe us £64.25 which I asked to be refunded and I was told that as the £99.50 payment that came out was on my account details online before the payment was taken then I can't get a refund even though they agree that the payment was too much!! So basically when they put the details on your ccount they can take whatever they want..... even i it is an overpayment. We've just had another baby and can't afford to pay any more than the £49 so if as per the other posts this monthly payment is going to increase as BT sees fit then we will have to cancel our package. Not sure what I should do next who is the best team to speak to as the lady I previously spoke to just kept saying the sme things over and over again which I assume is some sort of scripted response. Please help....

  • Monthly charge increased with zero warning?

    Hello,
    I'm on the "High Speed Internet Enhanced" dry-loop plan, which was a consistent $44.99 a month. This month, I see I've been charged $49.99. I looked at my past four saved bills and there's zero mention of an upcoming rate increase.
     But beyond that, $49.99 a month for 7Mbps down is ridiculous. I understand Verizon corporate wants to kill all the copper lines and move to fiber, but my building doesn't have FiOS available yet and there seems to be no way to get Verizon to contact building management to help expedite this process.
    At this point, I'm grandfathered into unlimited data on Verizon Wireless and I should probably just cancel my DSL line entirely and pay $24 a month after work discount to just tether and do a mobile hot-spot off my iPhone.
    In summary:
    1) When and where was this rate increase supposedly communicated to us?
    2) Is there any kind of contact form on the Verizon website to get this company in touch with building management to expedite FiOS installs by granting building access?
    3) Is there a direct number to any kind of retentions department?
    Thank you.

    I just read our reply to a verizon customer asking why their internet charges increased without any notice from verizon.  It is obvious that you are an active employee or retired when you advised this customer to go to customer spport at verizon and ask them why their rate was increased.  Actually I believe you stated, "our site".
    I am a retired verizon employee with 37 years of service.  I actually am having the same problem and I did go to support on "our site".  I gave the rep the dates when the charged changed, advised them the billing statement read, high speed internet disconnect and the date, and high speed internet added and the date, which was the same date.  I advised the rep I did not change my internet service and asked for the order number that increased my charge but did not increase my speed. I was advised there was no order.  And here's the kicker, I was told by the rep, and I quote, "Verizon is a large company and can change their rates whenever they choose".
    Unfortunately, Verizon has to file with the FCC in order for them to approve a rate change andevery customer should be informed.
    I suggest, in the future , if I were you, not to suggest to anyone to go to the support site fo help.  I sincerely hope you never experience the problems that many of us are going through with billing discrepancies.  I was also advised 4 hours ago, that a supervisor would contact me within 30 minutes.
    I'm still waiting!

  • Confused over monthly charge & increases.

    So, what with the price increases i've decided to take a very close look at what i'm paying and what for and to be honest i seem to be paying around £10 more per month than what's quoted on BTs website which will rise another £3 after the upcoming price increase.
    When i renewed in March i was led to believe i was getting a special offer for the lifetime of my contract and to be honest i'm left feeling like i've been shafted now.
    So, what i want to do is compare what i'm paying to what others are paying, heres what i currently have:
    Line rental: £13.90
    Barring witheld calls: £4.10
    Broadband, TV & Calls: £49.00 (£40.00 after discount)
    Calling Plan: Unlimited Anytime Plan
    Broadband: BT Infinity Option 2
    TV: BT Vision Gold Pack
    Credit: Special Offer Discount: - £9.00
    Payment Processing Fee: £1.80
    Grand Total: £59.80 per month
    After the price increase this will rise to: £62.69
    Whereas according to BTs website i should only be paying £53.69 (including the £9.00 discount i was offered for renewing early)
    I am seriously thinking about seeking advice on this and possible early termination due to being mislead when renewing my contract early.
    But before i do this i would like to get some idea of what others are paying, less? the same? more? for the same (if possible) package.
    Thank you.

    Thank you for your reply ttyrie but in fairness i think we are comparing different products.
    You say Broadband option 3 whereas im on BT Infinity, 40 Meg with unlimited usage.
    You also get weekend and evening calls whereas i get anytime calls.
    As for the the call features, i will definitely be keeping the barring witheld numbers as i was getting 10+ a day.
    As for the direct debit, i have a bad experience with BT billing so i'd rather pay the £2.00 extra to check my bill before paying it rather than risk my bank charging me £25 for BT taking payment before its due or taking it 3 times within 4 days as they did before. They also tried to setup a direct debit on my account 5 days after i cancelled the previous one WITHOUT my permission, so my banks been instructed not to make any payments to BT whatsoever.
    So i'm sure you can see why i'd prefer to pay the £2.00.

  • Increase in monthly charge, without being notified!

    Hi. I have an academic individual CC subscription. It automatically renewed last October (2014), however the monthly rate increased from €19.99 p.m. to €30.74 p.m.
    I was not informed beforehand of this increase, as per my contract, which states that:
    "the price is valid for a full 12 months. After that, we'll renew your contract automatically unless you cancel. The price is subject to change, but we will always notify you beforehand."
    This is very dishonest of Adobe, and furthermore breaks the terms of my contract. Has anyone else had this problem?
    Many thanks in advance.
    A.

    What Mylenium said.
    There's no dishonesty here but perhaps Adobe's admin could use some improvement e.g. email to notify you of what happens in month 13 when the auto-renew kicks in.
    When you signed up originally, it was for the promotional pricing for the first 12 months which auto-renews.
    Terms and Conditions | Adobe
    The Terms of the offer say:
    "$19.99/month Creative Cloud Introductory Pricing – Save 60%
    Eligible  students 13 and older and teachers can purchase an annual membership to Adobe® Creative Cloud™ for a reduced price of $19.99/month for the first year. After the first year we will renew your contract automatically for another year at the then-current standard monthly price (currently at $29.99/month), unless you cancel."
    So, in short, you were notified 12 months ago but a reminder 12 months later would have alleviated this confusion for you.

  • Even though I entered a credit card. Will it not charge anything if I only install the free apps? Is there like a monthly charge or just a charge when I want to buy apps that cost actual money?

  • HT3152 I have triple play cable service. Phone service is internet based. i pay monthly charge for cable provider modem. I also want to use modem for my Apple ipad2. Can I replace with another modem that will support internet based phone as well as ipad2?

    I have cable triple play service. Phone service ios internet based and depends on cable provider modem. I pay monthly charge for modem. I also want to use modem for ipad2. Is there any modem that can support both internet based phone as well as ipad2?

    If I understand you correctly, I have the same configuration.  My modem supports Internet and phone service and my television service bypasses the modem.  It does not do any routing.  It has a single Ethernet port and I plugged in an external router with a WiFi radio - Apple Airport Express.  Works like a champ.
    Configuration of the Express was difficult.  I had to plug it in to AC power and to the modem.  Then, I opened up Airport Utility and had to click "yes" for each recommendation.  Then I had to really think hard to come up with a WiFi password.  Took me a horrendous thirty seconds from start to finish!

  • Installment Plan monthly charges

    Hi, I saw there is an option to spread the charges on all months.  But the monthly charge remains the same. 
    Is there a way to calculate for variable monthly charges based on certain formula and add that amount to the expected monthly installment amount? 
    Follow up question if its possible, is it also possible to display the 2 amounts (monthly installment amount and monthly charge) as 2 separate items in the customer's invoice?
    Thanks and kind regards.

    Hi ,
    First of all there is no formula based insatllment charges in FICA in standard SAP .
    It is either a one time or frequency based as per the installment type configuration .
    IF you want a formula based then you will have to go for event 3032 where in you can change the installment charges .
    Secondly , as you are talking of segregation then , in installment plans the Sub transaction for charges are diffrent as that of installments .
    0080 - Main 0010 - sub = Installments .
    0080 - Main 0020 and 0030 = Installment charges .
    Hope this suffices .
    Regards ,

  • Are there any additional monthly charges to have service on a ipod touch?

    Are there any additional monthly charges to have service on a ipod touch? Or do you interest access once the ipod is purchased?

    do you mean internet access ? if so, there are no additional charges. your Touch will either connect to the internet via your local network at home or via a wi-fi hotspot such as at starbucks.

  • HT3204 I have been receiving the error message ...'iTunes store is unable to process purchases at this time.  Please try again later"  over that  last month with increasing frequency

    I have been receiving the error message ...'iTunes store is unable to process purchases at this time.  Please try again later"  over that  last month with increasing frequency.  What is the cause and solution?

    Hello e-b p,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    When encountering iTunes Store connectivity issues, the following resources provide the best solutions. To isolate the issue further, I'd be curious to know if it persists on other Wi-Fi networks (assuming you are using a portable computer). Either way, please attempt the steps outlined in these articles:

  • HT3702 I am currently being billed a monthly charge from iTunes for Pandora ($3.99) but would like to switch to the annual billing rate of $36. Does anyone know how this is done?  Thanks for your help.

    I am currently being billed a monthly charge from iTunes for my Pandora subscription ($3.99/mo) but would like to change to the annual rate offered by Pandora which is $36.  I don't see where that change can be made through the iTunes Store.  Any ideas?  Thanks.
    A

    How recently did you switch?  If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account.  The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices.  I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices...

    Welcome to Adobe Community.
    Creative Cloud subscriptions dont need serial numbers as they work on the basis of your Adobe ID and password . You can use a single Creative CLoud subscription on upto two computers only.
    For the charges, i will have to check the same from our end . Can you please provide me your email add in a private message along with the order number as well.
