Did you reach your download limit in August?

Valentia

I'm just interested to see how many people reached their limit in August. This is NOT a discussion on whether you were charged or cut off etc. Take that to another thread please.

If you just want to "tick" the poll without comment that's fine.

aidan_walsh

Nope. Round about the 40% mark, 8GB cap.

Dingatron

Nope. 16GB cap round about 8% at the most.

Basq

16GB cap - noticed on Sunday i only used 45% of it so been downloading non-stop since.. should be about the 80% mark by now.

Willymuncher

Nearly doubled it, reached 45gb :-/ damn that goes up so fast

mad m

Nope,15gig so far and a 30 gig limit,what a good boy Iam.

norbert64

nuts, just checked, yep I have, not much though, 9 GB DL on the 8 GB cap. :cool:

Dinner

Nope. Would have if I hadnt upgraded to a 16G cap earely in august though. I'm at about 10.

I'm not sure as my Stats page is failing me. But I think I've downloaded about 12GB in the past 2 weeks. Need to download more to hit my cap of 20GB!

azezil

Not sure where to check mine, but as I haven't received a letter like I did last time, I'm assuming no

god's toy

PiE

Robert

51GB over my 8GB cap.

RobertFoster

10.5GB down, 8.6GB up on BT's 1Mb package - the cap's 16GB on that isn't it? I only checked when I saw this thread, not been to the stats in a few months.

masteroftherealm

He he DOWN:56GB UP:69GB on a thirty gig cap.

OFDM

98% of my crappy utv 8GB cap now.

eoinf

anyone got the url for checking the eircom download limit

irlrobins

no stats page for IBB. But no cap either, so who cares!!!!

And yes, its super for me!!!! :cool:

jor el

250% of my 24G cap. Damn you American TV episodes (cue fist shaking).

Matthewthebig

How do i check in on eircom?

aidan_walsh

How do I check my stats in generic ISP

Its all in the FAQ!

Yook

NO cap, but DU meter says i've downloaded 127 gigs :P


EDIT: well actually, I suppose my cap is 640gigs a month (if i added it up correctly).

244k/s for 31 days.

optiplexgx270

Nope only 77Gb so far expecting 87Gb by tonight and 110~Gb for each of the last 4 months. Must check on disk space come to think of it.

Nearly time to buy some NAS.

CyberGhost

46Gigs on 16GB limit

zuma

Where is that fellow with eircom BB who is a serial 100GB+ downloader...month on month gone to???

Think about it people, some of the worst overdownloaders in Ireland frequent the broadband section and if we can only get into the 40-50GB region on 2Mbit connections...then the BB ISP's have very little to worry about.

Lambsbread

About 24 gig downloaded on 16 gig cap. only second time i've broken the cap in a year.

I usuyally break 100GB per month and Im only on a 1Mb/s Irish Broadband

-oRnein9-

About 10gb on 8gb cap!

NIBBS

yeah, I've gone way over, the excitement of finally having a Broadband connection seems to have gotten to me..........I'll be under next month though......definitely....

robinph

I broken my 8G limit for the first time. I'm so proud.

Its only showing about 10G at the moment though, but the stats page has been showing a load of rubish for most of the month so far.

jonski

Broke my 8gig cap for the first time , funny thing is when I checked it early last week it was very low , now all of a sudden without d/ling anything beyond a few movie trailers I have gone to 117% .

Heh, this reads like a poll on PI about who's lost their virginity.

I've gone some ridiculous level over.

Maybe it was wrong when I read it last week .

You poor &^*%^^%^%

Is there any hope you can ditch UTV and jump ship to ANY OTHER bitstream provider???

Your going to pay almost €100 this month for 1m/128k broadband.....thats 3m/256k from Digiweb prices!!!!

kmurph

2gb left today on 24gb cap.

bush

Theres an option to suspend the account when it goes over the limit, for some reason it was set to bill for overuse though, thats what makes it worse. I thought it was set to disable account when I went over as usual so I was downloading for sport yesterday. Fuming

Im thinking of going to Eircom at least they dont charge for going over.

try that one on for size!

i got 8gb out of 12gb this month - first full month with broadband!

bush

:eek:

zuma

Well it was 232GBytes and back in 2001.

I wonder what type of connection/download amount that person is capable of these days???

Still that letter was clearly automated and that ISP better not expect :eek: payment :eek: anytime soon .

ghost26ie

why? I think 40-50 is a lot when you have 16GB cap

optiplexgx270

I think you missed his point, i think he is saying that 40-50Gb for a month on a 2Mb connection is quite low when you take into account what the line could download in a month if let rip, in the region of 640Gb. It is low concidering you could rack this up in a week quite easily.

slave1

reached 21gig -my limit - after 2 weeks og august, went 2 gig over for the remainder og the month, eircom business starter

oh yes, now I get it

you are right zuma, 50gigs is nothing for a 2meg line
