Forced charging
In the small crazy things in life, today the VUW SCS posted a message on the VUW student portal website entitled Streaming media over the Internet is chargeable:
Please be aware that viewing streamed media while browsing the Internet is chargeable traffic and is being captured and billed to students who use this service. It is the students' responsibility to monitor their own Internet traffic and refunds will not be given for streamed media[...]
Sure it's just a small point, but when some CyberCommons rooms have the default home page set to the (chargeable) XtraMSN home page, which currently has a hefty Flash file...
I've also had some continuing trouble being charged for library databases that don't like to go through EZproxy. I guess some things take time, like the outgoing e-mail issues.
Overall, the good thing is that things seem to be working, especially the wireless access in some locations. I wonder if I want to try doing PSYC 101 in the Quad?
