Hi, my mum has been with Perlico for the combined home phone and broadband for a few years now.
She been mostly happy with the service, the broadband might not have worked on occasions in the past.
Anyhow, For the months of August, September and October, she got outrageous broadband bills from Perlico.
There is a 36GB download capacity. The broadband is only used occasionally for a little browsing, and deffo no movie downloads etc. She had a wireless router, but is located in the middle of the countryside so no neighbours can piggyback on the signal. The allowance used to be 6 GB in the past and she would never have even breached this. The computer is shut down and switched off when not in use. The computer is virus free etc.
Anyhow, Perlico have a facility for monitoring usage online and this never seems to be working. I disputed the bills with them and they said tough luck. They cannot offer a breakdown of the usage. They also said they do not have to offer any monitoring, as part T&C's.
This seems a bit outrageous. I am going to dispute this through Comreg.
Has anyone experienced the same type of issue or can you provide any advice for dealing with this type of situation?
