I got the call ... 680G last month

So how many of you have actually had their accounts suspeneded/cancelled?
I got "the call" this morning and have been scouring the boards for hours. They said I'd hit 680 gigs last month. I asked, "so how much have I used so far this month?". They didn't know. I'm pretty sure i'm already over 250.
Anyone actually lost their account? What if you have TV and phone with CC too? I can't believe they'd risk losing me on all accounts, especially when i do have a cable alternative here.

Yes, they have suspended the Internet portion of the people's account for the year period without regard to other services or accounts. If you look in this thread and search (thread search) for the word call, you should get a few testimonials.

There is a recap of subtopics related to that in the first post in this topic.

To date, here it is:

»Got the call. We used 610GB on a 50mbit/10mbit d3 connection
»Account cut off at 250G? Correction: 715G
»I got a warning from Comcast
»So, has anyone gone over the cap?
»Anyone got letter from Comcast ...

Re: I got the call ... 680G last month

Can one assume that the total codewords from the modem status page is somewhat a measure of the usage since the modem was last reset?

"Downstream UnErrored Codewords - Number of codewords received by the cable modem's RF interface without error, regardless of destination. Each modem will see all downstream traffic, but will only bridge packets destined for it's own MAC address."

So no, that would tell you something about your node, maybe?

Re: I got the call ... 680G last month

Two small things to improve a great post:

1) "packets destined for it's own MAC address" Should be"packets destined for the MAC address of the computer or router connect to the modem".

2) "that would tell you something about your node, maybe" Should be downstream channel, not node.
