What the hell does this mean?
I didn't change my rate plan!
Cingular hasn't notified me of any rate change!

I'm wondering the same thing.  I've been getting the same message on some of
my bills for the past several months w/r to the data summary.   But only in
some months; in other months it lists my usage with no problem.  Here's the
message I'm getting right now:
---------
"Due to the recent change in your rate plan, we are unable to display usage
information until after your next billing cycle begins".
------
What's all this about?.
Cordially,
Iopsy

I almost always get that message around the change of a billing cycle.
Normally 2-3 days later it's back to normal. It will also do that if you
have almost any change to  your plan, it what appears to be any form or
fashion. When I went from 200 txt messages to 1000, I started getting that
message until the next billing cycle. Not sure why that would be too
complicated for the system to understand. limit was 200 now it's 1000. Guess
the systems are very dynamic in that regards

It really does amaze me at times with has automated as everything is, that
we still have to wait 30 days for everything to "Catch-up"

Thanks for the info....
To answer some of the questions above-
of coursde, I called Cingular - the third time requested a supervisor
who just added 700 minutes to my rollover, but didn't have an answer to
the problem - told me that there was a change to my account that was
the cause (turn on international) - I told her that I just did that
with the second call after the problem started - she had no
answer..........
When I suggeested that the problem started after being on the road for
a month, she told me about the 180 days billing
liability...............
the January cutoff came, reset did not happen, hard copy was sent to me
- no change in billing

Cingular either knows and chooses not to tell me or customer support
hasn't a clue...
probably the later...

I think it boils down to an excuse for Cingular to hide your bill from
you in the hopes of collecting overage charges.  I am not sure the
other carriers are any better though.

When I had this, I was in a month where I didn't come close to my
limit.

I've only gone over once, though last month I came within about 8
minutes of using up my time.
