For a site that says unlimited bandwith within reason would you assume that 6Gb was out of reason.

My host 10kwebhosting.com has put a cap on my bandwith usage 6Gb its an outrage!

It says unlimited but in small print it says that high usage will result in a limit being set but 6Gb is pretty crap i can go and buy hosts which are cheaper dont pretend to have unlimited and offer 10Gb.

just posting to say if any of you thinking of going with this company with a site that uses lots of bandwith think twice!

I'll email them and moan, because I'm bored.

They're selling it as unlimited and it isn't, in fact, it's far from that. All unlimited packages have limits but this is just pathetic! 6 gig?

Haha!

Ask them for your money back or you'll contact trading standards or something!

They say unlimited but they all set limits in the small print, doesn't worry me, told work my company laptop needed a new battery and got a dodgy invoice for my expenses for £80 :)

Surely you shouldn't have to pay for more bandwidth from a company that claims to offer unlimited bandwidth?

I say move to staghosting ;)

Thats an extra £30 and £50 respectively, NOT £30 or £50 minus your original £20

Cheeseman, where can you find 10gb bandwidth a month for £20 a year ?

I'm with 10k also, spoke to them last week and they said I could have 10gb bandwidth a month for £30 a year or 20gb bandwidth a month for £50 a year.

I'm upto 8.6gb already this month and had to take down some downloads to protect my bandwidth, hit 1.3gb one day !

(I paid the extra £50 a year - you won't find cheaper, all unlimited bandwidth people set a limit somewhere)

You get 1gb webspace included in your £20 a year by the way so you can't complain.

Email them if your unhappy, they've always been very hepful towards me :)
