October 15th, 2009
06:07 pm Definitely one of those days. I am in a horrendous grump and my brain is all bleugh out of my ears. I spent most of the day as I could in the steam room, purposefully locking myself away from human beings until I could act decently among them.
Checking Mum's email for her, I then discovered not only a letter from BT telling me last month I had exceeded my download 10GB allowance (!) but also the 7GB warning letter for this month.
This is somewhat insane. And there are 2 possibilities:
1. BT are lying hounds. This is not unlikely, our phonebill often comes back with lists of calls that no one remembers making/having/otherwise indulging in. Add to this the fact that for a week last month I used NO INTERNET WHATSOEVER, it does seem strange to have exceeded the limit.
2. It's those SODDING RAR files. I had to kowtow to them a couple of times last month, much to my hate and general grumpiness, and had to get the software and do it again in the past week (and then immediately deleted the software as my virus scan does not like and nor do I and I think it a damned cheek that, particularly for the reasonably sized piece this month, the little sod sending it me couldn't have stuck the files together into a proper and sane format themselves. But Nooooo.
So yes. No Iplayer, No youtube, No RAR files (or any other similar files) until next month. I'm on an electronic diet. Because either way, I'm not giving BT the opportunity to charge more, the bastards.
There are TWO MORE WEEKS left in this month.
I may die.
