NTL could just as easily state 30GB a month, but some smart alec would complain that this meant you could download more each day in February than January. Daily or monthly its still guidance. Those recieving letters are probably downloading more than 30Gb a month (did I read 10Gb a day?) so we are talking about users making maximum usage of the service.

We know of one customer who downloads 8gig a day and 2 gig upload that also recived the letter. so they have moved the goalposts again.. I know that if he downloads 8gig a day for 7 days thats 56gig in a week but if his upload is only 2 gig then he isn't file shareing 24/7 is he.
When I am building a website I do upload a lot sometimes re-uploading but I am only learning and well I haven't spent anymore time on my new template as I am not sure I can, just unsure if I have any bandwidth left to work on that and college work.
All the worry could be removed if only NTL would allow consultation and listen perhaps to what is being said also to reply to emails from customers who are disturbed by whats going on.
