Blue did you get charged extra for May ?

You betcha tn1.
I emailed them saying ive had a good track record but nope, that doesnt matter according to them. They charged me at 0.137c a mb over which is around about $70. My mum hasnt found out yet, and we're on a pretty tight budjet as it is. Looks like this one is out of my pocket money :( (which ive been saving since that 1800mb day :D)Dammit i was saving for some records!

This was an email i sent earlier in the month.

I say we get all gamers from all games to do one massive DDOS attack on Telstra just to give them some of the grief that they have given gamers, and then do one to Optus when they change to the cap just to teach them a lesson :wink: :evil:

That sounds like a pretty good idea martok,.....seriously.....Im sure you'd get a lot of people in on it,

i rather think its a pretty fucking stupid idea. how do you think telstra will recoup costs associated with tracking/stopping/prosecuting the DDoS instigators?

i had it happen to me aswell i went over my limit by 300 meg bloody telstra charge a furtune for 1 gig over limit id rather make a new account and get another 3 gig fucking rip off PRICKS

sorry for the words in there :|
