Control Panel - Data Transfer Page
The Data Transfer page shows the amount of data transfer used by your account for the selected month. Your data transfer quota is also shown along with the amount of transfer used as a percentage of this. If you have exceeded or are projected to exceed your quota the figure is shown in bold red type. Note that if you do exceed your quota you will incur additional charges, any charges you have incurred or are projected to incur are shown in square brackets alongside the respective figure.

Projected Figures
The projected data transfer total is an estimation of the data transfer usage for the entire month based on the data transfer usage for the month to date.

Period
By default, the data transfer to date for the current month is shown. You can however choose an alternative month from the drop down list from which to view historic data transfer figures. This can be used to review the fluctuations in your data transfer usage over time.

Data Transfer Billing
Data transfer usage in excess of your monthly quota is billed in 1,000 megabyte blocks throughout the course of the month. Excess data transfer usage is calculated and billed for daily. This method of billing spreads costs over the entire month and makes it easier for you to monitor your data transfer usage as opposed to a single charge being levied at the end of the month.
