Usage meter not updating in Customer Portal

As some people have noted in a separate thread (about usage checker tools), neither usage checkers nor the Zen Customer Portal has updated usage for a day or two. It isn't clear how many people are affected by this and whether Zen still has accurate usage figures for them or whether the whole logging system is broken for some/many/all customers. (I assume not all customers or we'd have surely heard more about it.)

If anyone from Zen is reading this, they might like to comment.

YEs, it's gone Pete Tong for me too. I had a massive spike in usage a couple of days ago (13GB used in one day), which I don't think was correct and then a very low one the day after (too low) and now yesterday has showed zero usage when I know for a fact it should be 5 or 6GB.

Very confusing.

I've raised a call for this and will have it looked into for you.

As soon as I can I'll update you.

Thanks, Leo.

As you'll see from the other thread, the 'meter' seems to have stopped running (for some of us, at least) at some point on Friday.

To update you all.

We are aware of the issue now and are looking into it. A service alert has been posted and more information will become available as soon as we know more.

Thanks All,

Yep problem for me too,

Nothing showing since Firday and did a bit of browsing and was on Xbox Live for a number of hours yesterday and did some downloading in the early hours of this morning too.

The portal & usage meter are both saying my limit is now 55GB. Is that a bug? temporary increase? permanent increase?

showing 110 GB here (normally 100), think there have been problems identified (i certainly couldnt account for about 15GB) from early in Feb, so think they have given everyone a blanket 10% increase for Feb to cover any issues.

fingers crossed it's permanent! - especially for us loyal customers who never recieved a drop in cost even after they dropped the news service!

Why would you expect a discount because a service included as a freebie that hardly anyone uses has been taken away?

Look on the bright side, usage quotas were increased and the money tied up powering that server has been put toward upgrading the network.
