Traffic shaping and moving heavy users around is a change in the terms and conditions. All ISP's I have seen have this in their contract, Sky actually specifically say you'll be moved with heavy users if you continue to abuse the service. Yet they haven't written anything on their website, or told me I'm a heavy user that's why my net is being slowed down.

I honestly believe that within 2 years ALL isp's will traffic shape as it allows them to say they are unlimited. How hard they shape is the question.
