Waily, waily, waily

Too many torrents, too little time:

"Your peak-time usage for this billing month just exceeded 13GB.

Light restrictions will now apply to your connection speeds until the end
of the current billing month."


This is what happens when you are tempted to download entire seasons of Scrubs and 24 plus sundry telly programmes all in a couple weeks...

Better check when the current billing month ends. Can't be far away.

Small question for my professional interest, who are you with for Broadband and what's your download limit?

I'm with Plus.net. I don't have an actual download limit, but I have been a bit greedy with the torrents just recently and left them running all day for several days. The 13G limit I went over was peak hours usage. If I'd restricted myself to between about 11pm and 9am they wouldn't have turned a hair.

Ah yes I know Plus.net they're good about stuff like that. They actually have some of the best policies and explanations of them that I've seen while looking around various broadband companies.
