Why doubt it. I'd be completely unsurprised to find some ISP's have been
underbilling by a large amount due to netflow bugs.

In fact we had a former architect for a giant Australian ISP working for
us a while back who told stories of Cisco 12k's being doubled in some
PoP's and traffic counts (which were used for billing) going up by 80%
despite little rise in actual traffic.

Now, as to whether any ISP's with enough tech clue to be on AusNOG have
that issue today I'd doubt it.
