Hi there .
I am a 70 year old pensioner and have been with Freenet name and then Madasafish for many years. I finally signed up for the Broadband 5Gig package last September.
I only get 1.8mps connection speed but I can live with that. However my billing started to go wrong a couple of months ago and I was unable to understand the monthly usage amounts, and some months were missed out altogether. There were even account records from dates before I ever went on BB.
I then started to get emails saying I was 17 Gig over for the month which is ridiculous. I must have filled in dozens of tickets and made several long phone calls which both parties seemed unable to understand most of the time. . I just keep going around in circles with no one seeming to grasp the problem Finally I get emails appologising and saying the over use assessments were a mistake and to ignore them. That's fine I thought !
But now today my invoice has been sent and I am charged £25 extra for over use!.
I don't download any big media files- never dowloaded any music- don't watch TV- send a few emails and post a fewpics on a forum. I keep a daily check on my usage and make sure it is within my 5Gig so what's the point if the accounting system is all wrong.! I build and repair PC's so I have a pretty good idea of down and upload statistics.
It is worrying me sick and I wish I had never heard of Broadband. Trouble is there is no oneI can complain to because after all the tickets and calls no one at the firm seems to understand the problem and yet it as plain as day when I look at my invoices and usage log.
Any ideas as to a proper phone number I can ring or anyone I can get to further up or any official body I can complain to ?

hello
Sorry ,I don't understand what you mean.
I have made many phone calls to the madasafish number but as I say It does no good.
I could try the other number you give.

Hi there,
I'm taking a look over your account, billing and usage now. I'll post back to the ticket shortly with my findings and what I'm going to do to resolve it.
