unlimited broadband and usage

Old Man · 12 Jul 2012 at 16:41

I'm moving over to Sky unlimited broadband as I mix work with gamiing, but I was wondering what kind of amounts people were downloading from these unlimited services. On average I DL 80gig a month and the highest maybe ~200gig a month.

I've got between 70GB and 215GB in a month and that's just on my PC. My kids also download stuff but as it is truly unlimited I'm not really interested in how much they download.

Low usage. No problem.

Average of 500 gig

varies too sometimes more sometimes less only getting 3 meg down and 400 k up
Streaming and iplayer work better than my last isp but only just

I'm averaging 140Gb per month with no problems.

When I had Sky about 4-5 years ago I never had any queries about my usage, was probably a couple hundred gig some months.

Bt infinity, I would estimate well over 500gb a month, probably over 1TB if im honest, never tracked it though.

Sky unlimited is truly unlimited and going by the sort of usage you mentioned you won't have any problems at all. My average is probably about 200gb a month, been way over that a few times. No issues at all.

I've recently upgraded my BB package from 100GB to truly unlimited as I download quite a lot of Steam/Origin games, catchup tv/youtube, etc that was around 70GB/m.

We can finally connect Sky+HD box and not easily risk running over with Anytime+. Nice timing the planner is finally upgraded to the new HD UI but still a bit laggy browsing the live planner.

No idea.

You'll be fine.

I use mine for Tvcatchup, Sky GO, Youtube, Steam etc

Get around 200+gb a month easily no problems at all.
