I ran into the same problem with 12.4 releases on the 7200 and ISR 
G1/G2s some time ago when applying a QoS policy via RADIUS, (can't 
remember if it was in 12.4T but certainly was a problem in 12.4 
mainline).  This may be what you're running into.

The bug IDs for this were CSCte95297 and CSCti80776 .

Fixes for it were integrated in earlier 15.0M builds which in turn means 
15.1M and 15.2M also have the fixes.

The syntax for checking the QoS also changed - you need to use 'show 
subscriber session' commands from then on to see if the policy has 
applied and what, if any, drops are occurring.  It was a source of 
frustration that the old style 'show policy-map interface' commands 
didn't work anymore after that but restoring the old CLI output was 
considered an 'enhancement request' and I had no such luck getting that 
bit fixed :-(
