Over usage of my allowance by 67gb with no warning

i have just found out that i have a bill for £180.00 for over usage of my broadband. for the quarter it was 38gb one month then 67gb then 30gb over. because i hadnt checked my bank account to see this money coming out i had no idea. bt say they did warn me via an email that i was getting close but i had never received them. when i asked them where they were sending the email i hadnt heard of that address. i tried to log on to the address they gave me but it doesnt exist so how could they warn me. i have logged on to my account now with the email address that i chose when i set up the account so why were they not sending emails to that address. i am extremely unhappy with this service and will be taking it up with ofcom. i do not disagree with the overusage but if i had have been warned i could have upgraded my account the first time it happened and saved myself a fortune.
has this happened to anyone else and if so how did you resolve it.

Hi.
I find this rather weird, and certainly sounds wrong.
May I suggest you click on my shortcuts, and use option 12b. If it requests a login with a Yahoo! ID - enter your full email address you initially chose. The resultant screen will do one of two things. (a). It will either allow you to add sub accounts towards the bottom of the page - this means the account is a primary, or (b) it will actually tell you the email address of the primary account.
If (a), then hopefully a forum mod can sort out this problem as you will clearly have been given incorrect details on initial setup.
If (b), then again a forum mod should be able to get to the bottom of why you were not informed of the primary email address and login details.
I am actually surprised that BT told you the email address the warning emails were being sent - I assume that you gave them your security details, in which case could mean option (b) above is relevant.
You will probably not be able to login to the "other" email address as either it's not yours (my scenario 'a') or it will be a different password to your other account.
There are ways to tell if an account is active, rather than inaccessible.
Go to [https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?] and enter the email address you were given by BT and a password - if it comes back with "This ID is not yet taken", then the account doesn't exist. If is says "Invalid ID or password", then that typically means a wrong password, but the email address exists.

  • Production Order Closed incompletely with a warning message

    hi all,
    Production order is allowing to close with a warning message("Not all item were issue be careful check before closing") even completed quantity is less than planned quantity.
    System should have options in document settings for production order as 'Warning Only' or
    "Block Release" in order to block production order from closing as per above case.
    SAP should bring these new feature in next patch releases.
    We are using SAP B1 2005B PL36.
    Jeyakanthan

    Hi ,
    Following are prerequisites for closing a production order
    1 The order must have the status Released (REL) or Technically completed (TECO)
    2 The order balance must be 0
    3 There can be no open purchase requisitions, purchase orders.
    4 There can be no future change records from confirmation processes.
    Then look into the Transaction; COFC.You can handle this from there.To settle the order use tcode KO88
    Before that do Overhead calculation by KGI2, WIP calculation by KKAX, variance calculation KKS2.

  • Charged for broadband over usage but still below l...

    Hi guys,i hope someone here can help because i'm getting nowhere with bt helplines. At the end of january this year i changed from bt total broadband 1 to infinity. My old broadband limit was 10gb but i usually went over by 2 or 3 gb which i was obviously charged for, no problem there. With my new infinity package my allowance was increased to 20gb per month which was plenty enough for me.however,mybt usage monitor is still showing me to be on the old 10gb package.
    Despite several live chat sessions and phone calls(the last one 2 weeks ago informing me i had 40gb usage) i'm still being charged for going over my 10gb allowance.i've even sent them,as requested , a screen shot of my usage monitor!! Why on earth would i have to do that? My latest bill arrived this morning with charges added for over usage.
    Can someone please advise me of how to sort this problem out. To make things worse i'm now going to the dentist!
    Thanks in advance,

  • Waiver on over usage on bb option 1

    i'm new to computers and broadband. didnt know there was a limit of 10GB on option 1 that i have, or i wouldnt of let my daughter watch all them movies, iplayer, youtube, etc. ended up with £50 cost on top of my bill. i only just managed to sort out an email address and register with my BT. it took me a long week to do this after the bill landed on my doormat. i'm running out of time on the bill and i cant afford the over use charge  at the  moment cos £50 lot of money to me the way things are. this has proper stressed me out as i just come out of hospital overcome a serious condiition on icu. i'm gonna put one of those warning things on so it will tell me if it goes over the 10Gb again.
    anyway i read up on broadband usage and it says that if you go over on your first bill the overusage can be waivered, but how do i go about this. the operators cant speak english proper so they cant understand me or i them. so can someone from BT pleaase give me a phone number, not to indian operator or machine, or a link for the waiver please. thank you. please reply asap

    chrisbamb said:"This is the passage under the "What if I go over my Allowance" Section:
    If you do go over your monthly usage allowance then you may be subject to additional usage charges as outlined in our Broadband Usage Policy. In certain situations charges may not be applied. If it is the first month that the allowance is exceeded, we will waive the charge and send you an email confirming the amount of additional usage and notifying you that any further over-use in subsequent months will be charged. All charges will be added to your next bill.
    Unfortunately though the charges will be returned on your next Bill not taken off this one. You will still need to pay this Bill and then receive a credit on your next Bill. I would also look at what mediums your daughter is using to "download" films. Is she using UTorent or Vuze or some other type of torenting or is she streaming?
    As advised above, if your daughter is going to be using that much internet I would upgrade to the unlimited package otherwise expect lots of charges in the future as 10GB's goes nowhere when you are downloading or straming."
    this has been very useful. i did do a search on this forum referring to waiver but to no avail so here i am.
    i will pay the bill anyhow altho i will ask for a delay on paying it as to give me time to get my next pension. i just hope that the £50 will be credited to my next bill, otherwise if the charges go onto my next bill its hardly a waiver as such if i dont get the credit.  the bill i got is my first broadband bill but not my first phone bill. i didnt get an email because i only set up a email the last few days. i hope this isnt a necessary requirement to qualify for the waiver. but this is why i didnt know about the over usage.
    my daughter has put movies on my pc disc, but she also watching youtube, channel 4, and bbc player altho i have stopped her from doing this untill i sort out what the 75Gb over usage is defined. i get answer to one question but then it opens new cans of worms as this is all new to me so i am learning the hard way as i go along.
    thank you

  • FUP Charge but not over usage limit

    Hi,
    I received an email today informing i have 'spent more than £10 on my account since my last bill' so i decided to check what the hell was going on as i have no idea what this could be.
    So i look at my phone charges and they are worth £4.24, i thne checked my broadband usage monitor and its not over the 40gb limit, its under half way. However on my account it says there is a £20 FUP charge for 20gb!
    How can there be a £20 charge this month when i havent gone over, i paid last months bill in full so can someone please tell me whats going on?
    The last time a warning about usage was sent out it was on the 22/3/13 and informed me of a charge that was paid on a previous bill, so why is there a FUP charge now for 20gb shortly after i paid my bill when i have not gone over my usage limit since?

    Current usage is irrelevant? Then what is the point of it?
    Im basing this off of billing cycle dates that i've paid for and what i've used since.
    Ok my previous billing cycle runs from 19/2 to the 18/3 - i paid the bill for that period on the 19/3
    My billing area says: usage since March 19th (the date i payed my last bill) £24.24 (£20 of it is a FUP charge)
    Yet with thre FUP charge it says:
    All usage from 01 Mar 13 to 12 Apr 13: £20.000
    I paid a bill that covered up to the 18/3 and since then have not gone over usage so why is there a charge for fair usage now?
    I'll contact support but if anyone has a good reason for this i'd like to hear it.
    the current usage is irrelevant for the current charge a usage is calendar months so from 1st April whereas the charge you have incurred will related to the last usage period which ended on 31 March
    usage is calendar months but your billing period is as you have said totally different

  • HT1212 I found an iphone over one year ago. Its locked with a passcode. I kept waiting for the owner to call it. They never did. I went to ATT store today, they put a new sim card in it. but now itunes needs the passcode to reset it to factory settings.

    I found an iphone over one year ago. Its locked with a passcode. I kept waiting for the owner to call it. They never did. I went to an AT&T store today, they put a new sim card in it. and told me to go home, log on to itunes, and restore the phone to "factory settings".But itunes says the phone is locked and it needs the passcode to reset it to factory settings.
    Any workaround? Or, am I doing something wrong here?
    Thanks so much.

    Sounds like you may be the owner of a new phone!  If you don't need or want it and no one claims it you probably can sell it. Check eBay to see what the going rate is.
    You are to be commended for at least trying to find the owner. Many wouldn't. 
    Best.

  • How do I allow network volumes with the latest iMovie 10.0?

    How do I allow network volumes with the latest iMovie 10.0? The old "defaults write -app iMovie allowNV -bool true" doesn't work anymore.

    So, apparently, while iMovie is open, I have to EJECT the Net Drive.  When I remount it, iMovie immediately picks it up.
    That said... the update leaves much to be desired.  Many of the Projects have unlinked video (even though the same update using a Firewire HD shows the video linked).

  • Does anyone have Ford sync allowing text messaging with IOS 7.0.4?

    I had all the settings working when I was on ios 6, but now that I have upgraded it quit working.  I removed the sync from my phone and removed the phone from my phone from sync then paired again.  Then set the sync notifications back to on but still no text.  Does anyone have ford sync allowing text messaging with IOS 7.0.4?

    I need to update, my messaging is now working.  Apparently after going through the steps and the settng notifications to on all I had to do was turn off the car, open the door, and then return.  When I got in my car this morning the text messaging (recieve only) was working.

    You cannot transfer from the iPhone to the computer.
    You must move the contents of your old computer to the new one directly.
    Use an external hard drive perhaps or restore your old computer backup to your new computer.
    The iPhone is not the source of your data, that is the computer, the iPhone is only a slave device to iTunes.
