Alright, so apparently Rogers and Bell Have a new policy that people are only able to download within a certain limit.

I have a limit of 95 GB per month.
I used those 95 GB on the 15th, and they charge me an extra 1.50$ for every GB that I get.
Erm. Wut. da. fudge.

Discuss?

I'll screenshot the notice next month and show you guys.
It's literally eating me alive.
It gets slow as shit after all 95 is used up and then i'm stuck with gay service for the other two weeks of the month.

I wonder if it's possible to change your ISP? Whenever I've talked about getting internet in the home I've always said to stay away from the limit packages which are pretty anal.

Let's not forget that online gaming adds to it.

Bell is the same.
My parent's are thinking of transferring to ACN, because apparently their service is shit-fast, or so i've heard.

Seriously...You can't survive without downloading 95gigs of shit (porn? :P) a month?

Cut down on porn, bittorrenting, seeding, etc. Trust me, it'll help

Damn dude, that's a lot of porn.

You should see an addiction specialist, or at least cut back.

I suggest using your imagination instead.

All ISPs do this, just most don't ever mention the limit.
Comcast for example, states in their contract (even though they advertise unlimited) that there is a limit of the max bandwidth you can use per month, but if you ask for what that number is, they refuse to tell you.

And going over that limit can result in a termination of your account.

But yea, 95GB a month? Thats extremely excessive use.

What the fuck? $100 a month, plus limited download? Dude, you're getting ripped hardcore. Lol.

I'm paying just under $100 for phone, cable, and a 16mb internet service a month.

it's 95 gb for my whole house hold.
Mom = Her russian version of "Classmates.com"
Dad = His business crap
Me = All my other crap.

It doesn't matter which comp you're on.
It's 95 GB for everything.
Which is sorta lame.
No. I don't watch a crap load of porn.
I have slu... nice girls on my msn with webcams for that :) Pretty accurate webcams too.

+ I have it all on my 5 memory sticks of 4gb each for psp.
Get it from my friend and shit.

I have unlimited download bandwidth......

I have download over 1 terabyte in one before and never charged me an extra penny.......

Although I only get like 2mb/s so it's not that fast but it is unlimited...

Yeah, they just implemented it recently, I believe. I started getting notices from Rogers in May. I'm using the Express service, it fucking blows.

I need a new ISP, Rogers sucks monkey nuts. It's pretty fucking slow for me, laggy and it has a cap. 50 a month for this shit? ):<

No, they all have limits. There is no unlimted download, as I already said.
It's just that most don't mention what the limit is.

And that limit depends on the ISP.
Some may give you a 2TB limit, others a 200GB limit.

But 1TB in a month at 2mb/s?

Thats impossible. There isn't enough time in a month for that to happen.
(remember, net speed is measured in bits, and storage space is measured in bytes, the difference is a power of 8)
