Just checked this morning and its still 0.00 upload and 0.00 download since the 3rd nov.
and there should have been about 4 or 5 gig a day on there.
It doesn't really matter as I'm on bigtime but I like to see how much we are using.

Haha same here, I'm not too worried, but it's a bit odd, it suddenly stopped on the 4th, I've tried resetting my router and everything. still the same. Also my line upload has increased with the reset 1200kbp up instead of the 780 it's been for months

Mine was 6 days out of date so I rang Telecoms Data help as it was the Mobile Data recorder.
Took 24 hours or so but seems OK now..

It appears that there is currently a fault with the usage meter for Big Time. Other plans seem unaffected.

My views are my own, and may not necessarily represent those of my employer.

There is an issue with the Usage Meter display on Big Time. This is caused by the free upload function, and as Big Time runs differently to the capped plans (to allow shaping), this has caused this issue. The usage up and down is still captured, and this will be resolved soon.
