"BT Broadband Download limit"

I think I've exceeded the download limit. Anyone else done this? What are the concequences (sp?).

If you exceed it 2 months in a row, they send Meka round to to squeeze your testes with pliers.

70 pr0nz? what!

I think I went over my limit, though it seems like I've been stuck like this for awhile. Instead of 250k/s download I now get 25-30k/s if I'm lucky. It sucks :(

Nowt abusing about it. If titles costing more than 3gb apear on torrent sites (9 gigs average upload) then they're to blame.

No Anime, I downloaded the entire Naruto series, I'm currently on Episode 70.

pr0nz.

I think it's more so the overall bandwidth isn't in the squillions - not everyone will abuse it like you lot.

I'm currently on 29. My supposed limit is 30, but my account tells me 40.

I rang up to cancel a few days back, and the guy on the other end said not to worry, as long as you don't abuse it / go too far over the limit for the tiome being. Strict caps will be appearing, but not for a little while.

It's pretty obvious, I've downloaded about 18 gigs of it this month. And I still need more :(

I got the email that you've quoted from, basically, unless you keep exceeding the limit you won't be charged.

How did you know you'd reached the limit?
