sammynb 2929 Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Jimbo, just how much are you downloading a month? More than a small European tax haven? Now there's a unit of measurement I haven't encountered before. "A Liechtenstein of porn". it's gotta ring to it Now Martin a A Liechtenstein of porn might be acceptable among your southern fairy lot but most of us wouldn't be happy with anything less than a Monaco of muff.

NJS 3978 Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I usually get capped when I kick off my weekend porn download on Friday nights - it isn't that big a deal as it just speeds back up during the night. However I'm still thinking of cancelling just on principle. I first got Telewest in 2000 I think which was one of the first broadband services around and I paid £50 pm for quite a while (though the speeds increased over time). Now I pay £37 for 20Mb which will become 50Mb some time this year but its all pointless. You only need 1Mb tops for browsing so I don't know how they can actually sell broadband that is capped at this level - 3Gb (evening limit) isn't even a DVD. My first question when they offer 50Mb will by what's the point? Also I know its a cliche but the customer service has went completely tits up since the bearded twat bought it.

And you'll probably be lucky to get 25Mb max if this site is anything to go by. Edited May 31, 2008 by Fop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens if all the O2 customers tested are next door to the exchange yet all Orange customers are on long lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
