I don't really know how much data's transferred during gaming, but I reckon you could get there quite easily when combined with browsing and any other things. 2 gig a month seems really stingy though, I mean I can easily clock up 2 gigs in a few days/maybe a week. According to my router I've downloaded 1.7 over the last three days and I finished my last big download last weekend.
Which is making me curious as to quite how I've downloaded so much.

Capped packages are crap if you're gaming. They're really for casual web browsers.

Easily I'd say, 2gb realy isn't that much, especially for online gaming.

Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
