Your probably just looking at the current usage meter ?, this will show the data, the new one showing offpeak and on peak data and will be available shortly

Okay , Beat testers will get an Email shortly with the link to new Usage Meter, we have addressed the issue we saw from Tuesday's release and it should no longer try to auto update everyone.

Anyone getting an install error on version 1.7? comes up asking to abort retry or ignore (usage meter is not running either)

Version 1.4 works fine though

I maybe reading it wrong but I think its a little bit inaccurate

It says free data 29.77GB but adding the off peak total it says I have 66.16GB so should it say I have 8.8GB remaining not 29GB?

So I have another question

I changed my plan to torrent on the 23rd so when my bill comes out in the second week of june does that mean I have to pay the amount of data I have used in may as well as another fee for the amount I have used during peak hour?

They've resetted the data so I can't tell how much I've used before I change the plan

The Free Data 29.77 GB shows that you have used 29.77GB of your 75 GB of free off peak data. So effectively you have 45.23 GB of free data available until the end of the month.

The 66.16 that is shown on the Details screen is your total off peak data usage for the month, not just the off peak data used while on the Torrent plan. The data is categorised as peak or off peak, regardless of what plan you are on.

Cheers,
Scott.
