BT charging for going over cap?

zilog_jones · 2008-01-23 23:54:27

Just noticed I've downloaded 19.26GB this month, and my cap is 20GB :D Anyone have experience with BT actually charging for going over the cap limit, or do they only care when people are going completely overboard?

Might be an idea to add Digiweb to that list, when you get a chance. They enforce the cap by throttling users.

Hi Cabaal,

Would it be possible to organise that page so the Mobile providers are listed together under a heading and simliar for wireless etc... with each category being in alphabetical order?

Just a suggestion. I think it would make it easier to read.

I download about 50-60gb a month on the same cap. Never any issues.

I might be slightly blind, but i cant see a number unless they have edited the information.

On topic, they do reserve the right to charge if you abuse the service.
