BT Capped us

In summary, man up, either stop, download less or pay for a service that meets your needs.

which he was trying to do in the OP by asking peoples opinions on other ISPs, so get off your high horse and either give him the advice he's asking for or sod off.

And to the OP i'm on the SkyBB unlimited package and have no complaints :)
 
Thats all fine and good... but have to actually tried to work out the BT AUP?

Up until a few months ago it didn't even list any exact useage limits at all... and I can't see any mention of them now looking again... infact the useage allowance link in my BT control panel goes to:

http://www.productsandservices.bt.c...?topicId=25746&s_cid=con_FURL_broadband/usage which doesn't seem to list any exact useage limits on the unlimited product...

Exactly, it's all very well going "wah, wha... don't download more than you're allowed, mwaaah, mwaaah" but if it is advertised as "unlimited" with an impossible to find FUP then it's not quite as clear cut as that. I think most people only find out about the actual limit when they are told they are over it...:rolleyes:

I still think someone needs to change a law to ban the use of "unlimited"* internet if it actually isn't. A clear and transparent usage limit so people know what they are buying, that's all I ask. Unfortunately it wouldn't be brilliant for advertising purposes...

*Yeah I know they get around it by saying the internet is "always on" but that's what needs to be changed!
 
That's fair usage, I'm on about acceptable usage which is the thing that says don't download kddie porn etc.
 
Ah, even that on BT is pretty hard to decipher. Tho most people with common sense would know what does and doesn't apply.
 
despite o2 and be being the same company, they actually hsave different policies depending on who you join with (for the same package)

I have actually sent and uploaded 200GB per month and never had any issues.. I still get the same 750Kb/s download and 70Kb/s upload. And I'm with o2.

Be have a cap on the equivalent package.
