I have labeled the subject OT as it is not Linux per se.

Welcome, to MTNL accounting HELL :( Guess, your name came up in their internal (un)lucky draw of "which customers should we harass this month?"

Suggest, that you keep a log of your usage by printing the "Session History" details - I print the page to a PDF file through KDE's "kprinter" tool. If you have the NU plan, then play safe and reboot your modem @ 0:00 and 08:00.

Also, write to the Public Relations Manager @ MTNL Prabhadevi with details of your problem. He appears to be a better listener than the other technical managers at his peer level.

FWIW, if you wish you can also post your woes on the MTNL forums at broadbandforum.in and mouthshut.com.
