Its still 30gb a month at 2mb speeds which is ample for me.........It means I can get what I need quicker at no extra cost.........all good

I was once worried I exceeded the cap but on monitoring.

I do go over 1gb some days by quite a bit, but other days im out at the football etc or cant be arsed with the Internet I hardly use anything.

So It probably evens out to be quite a bit less than 30gb in a month I go over on about 10 days, 1Gb of data in a day is still quite a bit.

Unless you are running a fileshare empire!

ntl did plan to introduce 'Metered Broadband' next year according to a timescale on a presentation for investor relations. So this and new metered products may feature this when the cap is exceeded.

At the end of the day you have to make some compromises, either let all the fileshare bandwidth hogs come on and max their connections really screwing the network or impose a cap ample for the average user and bankrupt the bandwidth hogs with extra charges.

Either way
1mb for £17.99

2mb for £24.99

£37 for 3mb

all good good for the UK

Wonder if it wakes BT up, there is noway that they can possibly ever continue to sell a pishy 1GB capped 512k service for £19.99.
