When NTL first announced the cap didn't they state they would work with Power Users to produce a product aimed at their needs? I've seen nothing arise from this. As usual I presume that another NTL statement/promise came to nothing and was nothing more than a tactic aimed at deflecting flak at the time of the announcement.

I am a heavy(ish) user. Average 3GB a day download although most of my downloads are scheduled such that they occur off peak so as not to disrupt the service for others, ie from 1AM in a morning. I don't believe that making 25%-33% usage of my connection (1 MBit) to be excessive and I certainly don't agree nor will abide by a 1GB cap on 1MBit.

/me sits waiting for my cease and decist letter with NTL's cancellation number close to hand.
