exceeding download cap

jozi

Just wondering what peoples experience is with exceeding the download cap?

I'm with bt 1mb package

Big Chief

never heard of any penalties happening to anyone that exceeds the cap

although they do have the right to charge you ive yet to see this ever happen

I exceeded the 20gb cap on my 2mb connection 1 month & after 10gb the cut off my service for the remaining 5 days of the month. Pretty inconvenient but the didn't charge me the €100+ they had the right 2 charge me for. I had been exceeding the cap successfully for several months previous to that, but that damn usage monitor decided to start working again after showing 0.00gb for several months !!!

Mentioned this myself last week actually. I exceeded my 20gb cap by 7.5gb and have had my connection restricted. It's like I'm back on dial up again. Going to be like this for another half a month.

Going to change my isp sometime soon.

Eircom are enforcing their cap, while I#'ve not heard of any charges yet they do notify customers and recommend they move to a higher priced/bigger capped product or they may be charged/terminated.
