After 3 month(s) your subscription will change to £11.99
Both on the same exchange and product. i raised a ticket and they agreed we are both on the same exchange and I should be paying £11.99 less referrals
I march they charged me £16.49 it should have been £11.99 less referels of £3.50 which is £8.00 they owe me
No refunds were done
this month you charged £17.74 and it should be £11.99 less referel of £2.25 which again is
£8.00 overcharged
That is now £16 Plus net owe me this may not be very much to some people but as a pensioner its 2 days supply of food. If I dont pay plus net they will shut off my BB but if you keep my money I have to go without food. I get no response from the ticket 32720210.

Hi Samuria,
It looks like you were moved onto the correct market on the 29th March, unfortunately just after the billing script ran however that does mean you'll get charged the correct amount on the 29th April.
As regards the refunds, you have a £1 domain on the account so you should actually be paying £12.99 a month less your referrals discount. As such I've refunded you the £14 that we owe, and I'm very sorry it's taken 2 months for us to arrange this.
Now, the line profile... unfortunately you're still on a 6000 profile on the BT side of things so moving you to a higher one on our side won't make any difference. I can confirm that it's not down to a banded profile either. Perhaps the daily disconnection you're getting is preventing the DLM equipment from upping the profile as it doesn't think the line is stable enough.

My account summery is showing £15.99 a month today shouldnt it be £11.99 plus domain £12.99?
My line stats at the moment are
Connection Status Connected
Us Rate (Kbps) 928
Ds Rate (Kbps) 8000
US Margin 7
DS Margin 4
Trained Modulation GDMT
I have to connect with gdmt if I connect as asdl2+ it only connects ate 6595 with a upload of 6
If I changed it to adsl2+ would the speed increase and is there a speed limit on gdmt?
My line is very stable but the pole is a few feet from a street light and it only drop the line when the light comes on then its fine again.
The problem seems to be with the ds margin as asdl2+ wont connect at less than 6 were gdmt connects at 2 and is very stable

The base price of Premium in market 3 exchanges is £15.99 so that's what it should say for your account, the £11.99 for the first 3 months is dealt with via discounts hence the summary still showing the higher price.
Which router are you currently using? It may be that it's not fully compatible with ADSL2+.

It may be that DMT can be used to knock the noise margin back to something sensible - it works for me on ADSL2+

Hi Samuria,
The email content there is open as a problem that we're looking at - however the terms and conditions, and the prices advised during signup or the upgrade process are the binding ones. This was addressed recently in the Breach of Contract thread.
