Carrier upkeep cost went up for no reason?

Hello,
I've noticed my carrier weekly upkeep cost has increased and I can't figure out why.
Services have not changed, I have made zero jumps for the past two weeks, yet it went up from the usual 13mil to almost 21mil per week...
The base cost + the cost of the services still adds up to just 13mil, so I really can't figure out what's going on here..
Anyone?

you can always trust a bank to recover what it's owed:ROFLMAO:
the unusual thing here is forgetting a direct debit collection in the first place

I'm only surprised it didn't trigger an extra bank fee for using the accrual facility ;)

Not sure what's going on with the Carrier charges - my main paid its bill as usual, but on my alt the debt just moved to "accrued". Am hoping it sorts itself out next Thursday, the alt's carrier balance is healthy and previous payments were taken regular as clockwork.

I noticed this as well, unsure why. Normaly weekly upkeep 24,3 million, now 40.747 million. If the forgotten to bill last week, i expect 48,6 million credits. The same happens me a year ago, the corrected the value after a couple of days.

Something failed to tick. I didn't get an ARX reset last week.

Yep, something is off. My carrier's weekly maintenace shows as 39 millions instead of the usual 21. Checked the services and all the weekly costs for these show unchanged. My best quess is that the upkeep from last week wasn't deduced from the account due to some server error. I blame solar activity and cosmic radiation, my home server also glitched out curiously during the weekend , wreaking minor havoc to my Home Assistant setup🤪

I haven't been on my main in over a month. He's the only one with a carrier right now. I'll check the messages tonight.

I'm expecting to see a missing/short deduction, followed by a large deduction. I'll update in about 7 hours or so.

It turns out I was charged the exact same amount on May 16, 23, and 30. I've not been charged for June 6 though. The previous amounts were 18,800,000 each, and my current weekly upkeep is showing as 32,558,906. I'm expecting to get charged the full amount for two weeks tomorrow on Thursday: 37,600,000.

I also noticed I left a bunch of optional services enabled all this time (oops). I'm going to leave them enabled until tomorrow Thursday, for the sake of easy math.

Update:
I checked my weekly upkeep yesterday morning (Jun 12), and found it was exactly the same. Today, I was charged 32,600,023 Cr. I was charged about 5 Million Cr less than I should have.

I looked back at the previous weekly charges, and found 5,000,000 went to the crew, 13,800,000 went to optional services. I also missed an extra 23 Cr on the previous disbursement on May 30 (oops). That slight increase may have been a result of the bug that did all this.

It looks like FDev fixed it, but forgot to double everything.
Either that, or my entire crew went on vacation for a week.....

Just pushing this topic up once more.

I checked my FC (only outfitted with base + repair + refuel + armoury resulting in 9M5 upkeep per week) and over the last 3 weeks it was like:
  • week before last week: ~ 5M upkeep (too low)
  • last week: 9M5 upkeep (as usual)
  • this week: 14M5 upkeep (too high, somewhat balancing out the low upkeep two weeks before)

Are there still issues with varying FC upkeep costs and/or ticks not being triggered correctly?

I think there must be.
I just checked mine.... My usual upkeep is just under 12 million, but last week (21st November) it was around 21 million.

Must be a random thing, just noticed upkeep message showing 65 mil when fleet management lists it around 35 mil🤷🏼

I was also affected by this, which sent me scouring for answers. My upkeep is supposed to be 26.8m, but I was charged 50.9m.
