Re: Why Cogeco needs a realtime meter Strange stuff going on with me too!
I got my 85% usage on like the 25th of Feb.
And then again on the 1st of March!
Theres not a chance I did 35 or so GB in a day.
I checked online, and my Feb usage was low, like 37GB of the 40 in my Express 8 |

Strange?
I have much different words for it.
Consider bringing this to the attention of Measurement Canada, whether they like it or not.

Oh oh. This sounds a little more widespread....
Cogeco may have to bring in their world-class developers to fix their world-class UBB engine. Funny how these "bugs" always seem to err on the side of Cogeco's bank account, woot?
Man, I don't know how the government lets them get away with this bullshit. If these shenanigans went on in just about any other industry people would be going to prison for extended periods of time and paying massive fines.
And I don't know how anyone - from Cogeco or otherwise - could even remotely refer to Cogeco's metering as accurate. What a crock.

Funny how these "bugs" always seem to err on the side of Cogeco's bank account, woot? Question - if any business users would chime in. I rarely (if ever) see an error on Cogeco's side with bandwith. In all cases they show less than I transfer. I don't know if this is more likely to happen on the business side, or just a fluke.
Or do the business users not check since they don't pay for overages. |

Burlington, ON | said by Gone:We don't pay for overages, and probably never will. Oh, I know that. It's just where everyone sees their meter fail on Cogeco's side mine is always the other way. Just wondered if that was just me (for whatever reason) or if other business users have seen the same.
I realise that most business users likely don't check as they don't pay for overages. |

FWIW, I checked mine (also was on business) only to satisfy my morbid curiosity, and I never went over. For the most part, they weren't too bad. Some days were really off. The last 2 months they were off more than usual.
