Was over my cap so changed up to the 80GB plan. Told it wouldn't come into effect till the new billing cycle a week away. Expected that.

But yesterday I looked at my usage and found the 80GB had been added to the initial 30GB giving me a 110GB cap for a few days. And I don't have any ISOs to download!! Darn.

Anyway, thanks Orcon.

It might pay to make sure that extra allowance applies to the week and not the full month.

The extra 80GB might be counted as about 2.6GB per day for the next week. Go over that and incur extra charges.

I have been caught out when I have changed plans. However, I did manage to get the extra charges removed.

No, the 110GB started when I asked for the plan change. But thanks for the heads up.
